Freiburg and VfB Stuttgart will be looking to kick off the 2024/25 Bundesliga season on a high when they go head-to-head at the Europa-Park Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
Both sides have already played football in the new season, with the hosts beating Osnabrück 5:0 in the first round of the DFB-Pokal, while Stuttgart lost to reigning champions Bayer 04 Leverkusen in the DFL Super Cup final on penalties.
Last season was a mixed bag for Freiburg in many respects. They finished outside the European places for the first time in three years and had the fourth-worst home record in the Bundesliga.
Stuttgart meanwhile were one of the surprise packages of the German top flight last season. They led the table for several weeks before being edged out by Leverkusen to finish second. The Reds will be looking to replicate that form this term, but this time they will be without one of their key players from the 2023-24 campaign in Serhou Guirassy.

Freiburg team news
Noah Atubolu has been struggling with an appendectomy and Saturday's first match of the 2024/25 Bundesliga season will come too soon for him.
The goalkeeper is the only injury concern for the visitors, meaning that head coach Julian Schuster could stick with the side that beat Osnabrück last weekend.

VfB Stuttgart team news
As previously mentioned, Stuttgart will be without Serhou Yadaly Guirassy who found the back of the net 28 times in 28 league appearances last season.
Guirassy has joined Borussia Dortmund on a permanent deal, so head coach Sebastian Hoeneß has a big task on his hands in terms of getting his side scoring goals.
