🗞️ Team News: VfL Wolfsburg

Mattias Svanberg (Muscle injury), Mathys Angély (Torn muscle fiber), Bennit Bröger (Knee surgery), Andreas Skov Olsen (Ill), Rogério (Fitness), Sebastiaan Bornauw (Foot injury) and Marius Müller (concussion) won’t be available for VfL Wolfsburg boss Ralph Hasenhüttl.

We think that Wolfsburg look set to employ a 3-5-2 formation in the match, utilising Kamil Grabara, Kilian Fischer, Denis Vavro, K. Koulierakis, Kevin Paredes, Bence Dardai, Maximilian Arnold, Yannick Gerhardt, Joakim Maehle, Jonas Wind and Mohamed Amoura.

📰 Team News: Freiburg

Freiburg manager Julian Schuster has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Noah Atubolu (Shoulder injury), Daniel-Kofi Kyereh (Knee surgery) and Bruno Ogbus (Achilles tendon rupture) miss out here.

From our viewpoint, Freiburg will likely play in a 4-2-3-1 formation, choosing Florian Mueller, Lukas Kuebler, Matthias Ginter, Philipp Lienhart, Christian Guenter, Maximilian Eggestein, Patrick Osterhage, Ritsu Doan, Johan Manzambi, Vincenzo Grifo and Lucas Hoeler.

🧠 Prediction

We’re of the view that Freiburg are certainly able to get a goal against this VfL Wolfsburg side, however that probably shouldn’t be enough to avoid defeat.

We can see a close game with a 2-1 victory for VfL Wolfsburg after 90 minutes. Expecting it to be very competitive.
