Noah Atubolu (Shoulder injury), Daniel-Kofi Kyereh (Knee surgery) and Bruno Ogbus (Achilles tendon rupture) won’t be able to feature for Freiburg gaffer Julian Schuster.

We are thinking that Freiburg could use a 4-4-1-1 formation this time, handing starts to Florian Mueller, Lukas Kuebler, Matthias Ginter, Philipp Lienhart, Christian Guenter, Ritsu Doan, Maximilian Eggestein, Patrick Osterhage, Vincenzo Grifo, Lucas Hoeler and Michael Gregoritsch.

ℹ️ Team News: Hoffenheim

It’s our belief that Hoffenheim could decide to make use of a 4-2-3-1 system, settling for Oliver Baumann, Valentin Gendrey, Arthur Chaves, Kevin Akpoguma, Alexander Prass, Anton Stach, Tom Bischof, Bazoumana Toure, Andrej Kramaric, Marius Buelter and Haris Tabakovic.

⚡ Prediction

Hoffenheim will have a tough ask to get anything against this Freiburg lineup who we think should win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.

That’s why our selection here is for a 1-0 winning score for Freiburg at the end of this one.

Hopefully it’s a good one.
