Bayern vs Freiburg Prediction
🔊 Can Freiburg withstand the pressure at the Allianz Arena? No team has managed that feat this season. Relentless Bayern have claimed victory in seven home games with an aggregate score of 27:2. Considering the "Brazilians of Breisgau" haven't defeated the Munich side in their last five encounters, discussing their chances of a win seems futile. But can they snatch a draw, like Union Berlin did in the previous round?
Head-to-Head
📊 Last season, by their standards, Bayern secured relatively modest victories over Freiburg, winning 2-0 at home and 2-1 away.

Bayern Munich Team Overview
🔴 In the last round before the international break, Bayern traveled to the capital aiming for another three points and their 17th consecutive victory. However, Union Berlin, backed by their home crowd and set-piece strategies, twice took the lead against Vincent Kompany's Munich machine at the An der Alten Försterei. After conceding the first goal, Luis Diaz scored one of the best goals of the round before halftime. In the second half, Bayern once again struggled with a set-piece at their own end, conceding in the 83rd minute. Yet in stoppage time, Harry Kane salvaged a point for the team (2-2).
⚪ This was the first match of the season that Bayern did not win, ending their streak at 16 victories. Nevertheless, Bayern remain a formidable force, and there's no sign of a dip in form. They need to defeat Freiburg to maintain a comfortable lead over their rivals, but it's crucial not to expend too much energy on Saturday's match as they face a challenging trip to London on Wednesday for a Champions League clash against Arsenal in the fifth round.

Freiburg Team Overview
⚫ The "Brazilians of Breisgau" head to Munich riding a four-match unbeaten streak, with the first three of those games played away from home. Julian Schuster's side secured a 3-1 victory over local Second Bundesliga outfit Fortuna Düsseldorf in the DFB-Pokal Round of 16, followed by a goalless draw against Union in the capital. They then traveled to Nice and claimed three points in the Europa League with a 3-1 win. Returning to their home ground at Europa-Park, they defeated St. Pauli thanks to goals from Yuito Suzuki and Maximilian Eggestein (2-1).
⚪ Currently, Schuster's team sits in 10th place, having accumulated 13 points (3 wins, 4 draws, 3 losses). On the road, Freiburg have been less convincing, with just one win in five away fixtures, which came two months ago against Werder Bremen (3-0). Besides that victory, they have drawn twice and lost twice. Facing the current Bayern at the Allianz Arena will be, to put it mildly, an incredibly tough challenge, especially considering they failed to score in their last two visits to Munich.

Latest news
Bayern Munich
🎙 Vincent Kompany on the opponent: "Freiburg are one of the best examples of consistency. I'm a big fan of stability in football. They have a coach who used to play for the club. They rarely change their tactics, only making slight adjustments. If you look at their scouting system, they know exactly which players fit their style. Matches against them are never easy - they can compete with any team. I'm looking forward to the game."
🚑 Manuel Neuer will miss the match due to a gastrointestinal infection. Joshua Kimmich and Serge Gnabry are training individually. Jamal Musiala continues his rehabilitation. Kim Min-jae did not train with the team on Friday. Hiroki Ito has returned to full training. Alphonso Davies is continuing to build up his fitness.
Freiburg
🎙 Julian Schuster ahead of the match: "Bayern won't forget how their last game went. Union and Cologne exposed some gaps in their defense during the German Cup. We need to strike a balance between aggression and discipline, while also being creative and bold."
❌ Midfielder Daniel-Kofi Kyereh remains unavailable.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
Sven Jablonski has been appointed as the main referee for the match at the Allianz Arena. His average for yellow cards in the last 10 matches stands at 3.7. Bayern's average yellow cards over 10 rounds is 2.5, while Freiburg's is 1.7. We suggest betting on Freiburg's individual total of fewer than 2.5 yellow cards - this bet has come through in nine of the last ten rounds for the "Brazilians from Breisgau".
⚽ Goal Prediction
At the Allianz Arena, Bayern have conceded only two goals in seven matches across all competitions. Freiburg have scored 7 out of their 13 Bundesliga goals from set pieces: three from corners, three from penalties, and one from a free-kick. For those willing to take a risk, a bet on a Freiburg goal could be intriguing. Considering Union scored twice against Munich from set pieces in the last round, there's logic in this.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Bayern's average number of corners over 10 rounds reflects their dominant style - 5.7 (third highest in the league). Freiburg's average is 4.4 (13th place). We recommend betting on Freiburg's individual total of more than 1.5 corners, as set pieces are a key element of their successful play.
Editor's Prediction
Bayern are set to charge forward from the start, aiming to establish a lead by halftime. The club's standards and internal expectations mean that a draw is never satisfactory-even after a streak of 16 victories. Against Freiburg, we believe the Munich side will once again deliver a convincing performance. We are backing Bayern to win with a -1.5 handicap, a bet that has come through in six of their seven home matches this season. While Freiburg have held their own against teams of similar or lower caliber, it's likely their string of poor results against Bayern will continue-we predict a 4-1 scoreline.
