Freiburg host RB Leipzig at the Europa-Park Stadion in the Bundesliga on Saturday (May 6). Christian Streich’s men will be desperate to get one over the hosts after suffering a humiliating 5-1 loss in their DFB Pokal midweek clash.
The hosts were dumped out of the DFB Pokal in the semifinals, losing 5-1 at home against RB Leipzig on Tuesday. Christian Streich’s men now return to the Bundesliga, where they're on a three-match winning streak, scoring eight goals and keeping two clean sheets since their 1-0 loss against Bayern Munich on April 8.
Freiburg are fourth in the league table, level on 56 points with third-placed Union Berlin and six points behind league leaders Bayern Munich.
Meanwhile, following their midweek cup win, Leipzig have won five of their last six games across competitions, scoring 12 goals and keeping three clean sheets. However, Marco Rose’s men have struggled away from home, where they have lost three of their last four league games since the start of March. Leipzig are fifth in the Bundesliga, having picked up 54 points from 30 games.
