Freiburg vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction & Betting Tips (7 March)

It will now be complicated for Friborg to consider securing a European place at the end of the season. Because by losing in a very important duel against Eintracht Frankfurt 2-0 last weekend, the Black Forest club ceded ground to a direct competitor and is even 7 units behind the 6th place occupied by its opponent of the day. The Brazilians from Brigsau had previously been quite clearly beaten by Hoffenheim 3-0 but they were able to revive by dominating Borussia Mönchengladbach 2-1. Also note that Friborg will play the semi-finals of the German Cup next weekend. By winning Wednesday evening by the smallest of margins during their late match of the 17th day against Hamburg 0-1, Bayer Leverkusen carried out an excellent operation.

Kasper Hjumland's men certainly remain in 6th position in the ranking but they are still only 3 points off the podium. Consequently, they remain more than ever in contention in the race for qualification for the Champions League. Before this success, the Usine 11 suffered a setback against Union Berlin 1-0 and a draw conceded against Mainz 1-1. Note that next week, Bayer will face Arsenal in the 1/8 finals of the Champions League after eliminating Olympiakos in the play-offs, winning 0-2 in the first leg, 0-0 in the return. 

As since the start of the season, Ghanaian midfielder Kyereh will have to stay in the infirmary. In addition, senior defender Lienhart, important Rosenfelder and right-back Kübler will also be forced to throw in the towel this weekend. Good news, however, for coach Julian Schuster who finally recovers midfielder Manzambi (3 goals) who was suspended during the last 2 days. Winger Beste is also back this Friday. Italian midfielder Vincenzo Grifo is still very present. With his 6 goals in the Bundesliga, he remains the top scorer for this team, tied with striker Matanovic who should start up front.

Like Wednesday evening during the trip to Hamburg, goalkeeper Flekken, former Monegasque winger Ben Seghir and winger Tella should remain in the stands. The titular right piston Lucas Vazquez must also give up at this time. Preserved this week, potential starters Arthur (right piston) and Badé (central defender) could return to the group, as could Czech striker Schick (7 goals, 2 assists) who was withdrawn at the last minute against HSV. The excellent Spanish piston Grimaldo (5 goals, 5 assists in the Bundesliga) as well as the precious Poku (5 goals, 4 assists) are there. Against Hamburg, it was Cameroonian Kofane who was able to score his team's only goal, his 4th of the season in the league. The probable line-ups for Freiburg - Bayer Leverkusen:
