Freiburg will host Borussia Monchengladbach at the Europa-Park-Stadion on Saturday in another round of the 2023-24 Bundesliga campaign.
The home side have endured a rather disappointing start to their league campaign and are falling behind in the race for European football. They were beaten 2-1 by high-flying Bayer Leverkusen in their last league game, finding themselves two goals down before Manuel Gulde came off the bench to head home a second-half consolation goal.
Freiburg sit eighth in the league table with 13 points from nine games. They will be looking to shake off their latest results and get back to winning ways this weekend.
Borussia Monchengladbach have not fared any better than their opponents in the league so far this season, although results have begun looking up. They beat Heidenheim 2-1 in their league game last weekend before beating the newly-promoted side 3-1 three days later in the DFB Pokal.
The visitors sit 11th in the table with nine points picked up so far and will be hopeful of adding to that tally come Saturday.
