SC Freiburg - Union Berlin

Before the Season it was a lot of doubts in Freiburg if this young and unexperienced squad is good enough to play for promotion immediately. But after 16 Rounds they can be very proud what good squad they have build. All are working very well with Coach Streich together and they are the team which must be beaten. They are on the top even with Leipzig and with a win they can climb half time title. This should be additional motivation for them anyway and all are very hot to celebrate with the fans a bit after the game. The offensive is one of the best in league and they are scoring very well above all at home. The atmosphere is special in this close stadium and the players like it. With Grifo, Philipp, Petersen and Frantz they are always able to create some dangerous situation and put some pressure on the opponent. These guys can not be stopped over 90 minutes. On the other side the defensive line has some weakness what allow some goals too. It may can be that they have to change there too often because of missing players above all on the wing.

In Berlin were all talking from top 6 and maybe more but the good last Season could not be repeated so far. After they sucked Düwel Lewandowski had a good start but the team fall back to old bad play. Coach Lewandowski wants to play an offensive style with a lot of pressure over the wings but the team has still problems to bring this on the pitch, a lot of ups and downs. Better matches followed weak matches and so on. This makes it very difficult to get out of the trouble they are at the moment. Also they play a new system with a 3 men defending line where the players must be ahead of all actions. With this Lewandowski wants to have one man more in midfield to get more pressure in offensive. Over the wings they are very prone and allow always easy goals. Against the top offense of the league can this be a big problem. Up front they are always able to score above all with corners and standards where they have good players and also tall one.

The offensive power from Freiburg is enormous and they scored already 26 goals in 8 home matches. In 7 of 8 they scored at least 2 or more goals, only against Bochum 1-3 they were not able to score more. But in these 8 matches they conceded already 14 goals what speaks not much for their defensive work. Ok, with all the big guns up front they can allow to take the focus not to much on defensive. They are a offensive playing team and they love to get out and fire from all guns. They are dangerous from all situations, if fast breaks, standards, corners and so on. Also a lot of players can score too. On the other side has Union not the best defensive line and should get a lot of problems with such an excellent playing side from Freiburg. Of course they should get some opportunities to score what they did in 6 of their 7 away games. Therefore we are very pleased with the over here.

PICK: OVER 2,75 @ 1,95 (3 Units / Flat Stake)
