Freiburg vs St Pauli Prediction 9 November 2025
🔊 After four away games, Freiburg return to the Europa-Park Stadion for their Bundesliga Matchday 10 clash against a struggling St. Pauli.

Meanwhile, the visitors are enduring a dreadful run in the league, having lost six consecutive matches. Last season, the "Pirates" managed to thrash Freiburg 3-0 and snatch valuable points. Can they turn their fortunes around once again at the Europa-Park Stadion?

Freiburg Team Overview
🔴 After their eight-match unbeaten streak was snapped by a 2-0 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen, Julian Schuster's side headed to the capital, eager to bounce back with a win against Union Berlin. However, the ninth-round clash ended in a goalless draw (0-0). This single point leaves Freiburg in 11th place. The team has only two victories and a negative goal difference of 11:13 (-2), highlighting their struggles in front of goal.
🏆 Yet, in the Europa League, the team shows no such issues. Following their match in Berlin, Freiburg traveled to France to face Nice in the fourth round. Julian Schuster's squad displayed their attacking prowess, netting three goals in the first half and sealing the final scoreline within the opening 45 minutes (3-1). After conceding midway through the half, the "Brazilians of Breisgau" turned the game around with efforts from Johan Manzambi, Vincenzo Grifo (from the penalty spot), and Derry Scherhant. Grifo notched his 100th goal for Freiburg, and this victory marked their third in the competition, elevating them to second place in the group with 10 points.

St. Pauli Team Overview
🟤 Alexander Blessin's team is in a crisis. The "Pirates" have been on a losing streak in the league for over a month and a half, dropping six consecutive matches. The aggregate score in these games is a disastrous 14:1. Their home triumph in the DFB-Pokal Round of 16 against Hoffenheim (2:2 in regular and extra time, 8:7 on penalties) failed to translate into the ninth round of the Bundesliga, where they faced Borussia Mönchengladbach, who had not won a single game prior (0:4). Hamburg's side had no answer for their opponents, resulting in their heaviest defeat of the current season.
⚪ Nevertheless, St. Pauli are not yet in the relegation zone, sitting in 15th place with 7 points. However, with their current form, taking even a single point from Freiburg would be extremely challenging, and there's a significant chance that the "Pirates" could end up at the bottom of the table by the end of the round. Alongside Heidenheim, St. Pauli are one of the least productive teams, scoring only 8 goals over 9 rounds. Meanwhile, the Hamburg club has conceded 18 goals-only Eintracht Frankfurt have let in more, with 19.

Latest news
Freiburg
🎙️ Julian Schuster on the match in Nice: "I wasn't entirely satisfied with the first thirty minutes, during which we gave away possession to the opponent unnecessarily. That's why it was crucial to turn the game around before halftime. We're pleased with the victory and the three points. It's challenging to create chances against Nice, so it was especially gratifying to come from behind."
❌ Daniel-Kofi Kyereh remains sidelined. Eren Dinkci has also missed the last four games.
St. Pauli
🎙️ Alexander Blessin on the team's mood: "There's always something happening at St. Pauli. We've tried to stay true to ourselves and not get distracted by outside noise. The team wasn't satisfied with their performance against Gladbach. It's crucial to learn from this. Everyone needs to play their part. We've had a lot of work: video sessions, team meetings, group and individual discussions. It was important for me that the guys came together again and openly discussed certain topics. We used the week to bring tactical clarity."
❌ Ricky-Jade Jones is in good form and continues his recovery with a personalized program; he'll be back after the international break. Adam Dzwigala is dealing with muscle issues stemming from an abdominal injury. Manolis Saliakas has suffered minor knocks, and his participation in the game remains uncertain.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
Benjamin Brand will officiate the match at the Europa-Park Stadion. This season, the referee has overseen 6 matches, averaging 2.2 cautions per game. Freiburg players receive an average of 1.7 yellow cards per match, while St. Pauli players average 2 yellow cards. We opt for Freiburg's individual total of under 2.5 yellow cards - this outcome has occurred in 12 of the last 13 Bundesliga games for the "Brazilians of Breisgau."
⚽ Goal Prediction
St. Pauli have failed to score in their last 4 matches. Considering the "Pirates'" scoring struggles - just one goal in the previous six rounds and only eight for the season - it's reasonable to expect their goalless streak to continue. Here, we choose a cautious option: St. Pauli's individual total of under 1 goal.
🚩 Corner Prediction
In terms of average corners per game, the hosts trail the visitors. Freiburg averages 3.9 corners per match, while St. Pauli averages 5.7. Prediction: Freiburg's individual total of under 5.5 corners - this outcome has occurred in seven consecutive matches for Julian Schuster's team.
Editor's Prediction
Freiburg haven't tasted victory at the Europa-Park Stadium in the Bundesliga for two months now, with their last win dating back to September 13 when they defeated Stuttgart (3-1). Overall, the team is winless in their last five league matches. However, outside the Bundesliga, their fortunes have been brighter: after a loss to Bayer, the "Brazilians of Breisgau" bounced back with wins in the DFB-Pokal and the Europa League. Facing an injury-hit opponent like St. Pauli, the hosts must secure all three points at home if they aim to compete for a European spot. Our prediction: Freiburg win. A possible scoreline is a comfortable 2-0 shutout victory.
