An in-form Freiburg return to Bundesliga action this weekend as they take on Hoffenheim at Europa-Park-Stadion on Sunday afternoon.

The hosts come into this fixture in high spirits after a midweek win against Basel in the Europa League, but can expect a tough test against a Hoffenheim side that has won all three of their away fixtures this season.

Freiburg have had the better of recent meetings, and another competitive contest with plenty of goalmouth action is expected at Europa-Park-Stadion.

Freiburg team overview

Freiburg returns to Bundesliga duties after a hard-fought Europa League victory against Basel on Thursday. Maximilian Eggestein's second-half goal proved decisive as Julian Schuster's side held on for a well-deserved win at Europa-Park-Stadion.

An excellent run of form has seen the home side pick up three successive victories, including an impressive 3:1 win against Stuttgart.

High-scoring outcomes have been a regular occurrence for the Breisgau-Brasilianer. Nine of their last ten games finished with a minimum of three goals scored, while four of their last five games also saw both teams on the scoresheet. 

Recent encounters between these sides have been similarly entertaining. Freiburg have seen over 2.5 goals in seven of their last nine matches against Hoffenheim, including a 3:2 win at this venue last season. 

Head coach Schuster has three expected absentees this weekend. Johan Manzambi is suspended while Junior Adamu faces a late fitness test. Daniel-Kofi Kyereh misses out due to injury.

Hoffenheim team overview

Hoffenheim make the trip to Europa-Park-Stadion looking to bounce back from a 4:1 home reversal against Bayern Munich last weekend.

Christian Ilzer's men have been in mixed form, picking up three wins and two defeats from five games played across all competitions.

A goal chasers favourite, Hoffenheim continue to prove a reliable choice in the goal markets. The visitors have seen over 2.5 goals scored in each of their last ten competitive fixtures. In fact, a minimum of four goals were scored in all but one of those games.

The visitors have also seen BTTS in ten of their last 12 Bundesliga matches and another high-scoring outcome should be on the cards this weekend. 

Head coach Ilzer has four players missing for the trip to Freiburg. Adam Hlozek, Valentin Gendrey, Koki Machida and Ozan Kabak are all ruled out with various injury issues.
