Freiburg will do battle with visiting opposition team Gladbach at Europa-Park Stadion in their Bundesliga game on Sunday. Here is an update on the latest predicted line ups and news on player availability.

Freiburg will be looking to improve on their last outing here following a 3-0 Bundesliga loss in their previous game against Hoffenheim. It seems likely that Freiburg should make use of the 4-2-3-1 system for the game, handing starts to Noah Atubolu, Philipp Treu, Matthias Ginter, Bruno Ogbus, Christian Günter, Maximilian Eggestein, Patrick Osterhage, Jan-Niklas Beste, Yuito Suzuki, Derry Scherhant and Lucas Höler.

Max Rosenfelder, Daniel-Kofi Kyereh, Philipp Lienhart and Lukas Kübler are not available for Freiburg boss Julian Schuster. Johan Manzambi will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

How Freiburg might line up to play Gladbach

After suffering a loss in their previous game against Eintracht Frankfurt in Bundesliga competition, Gladbach and their fans will hope to get a better result this time. It’s our belief that Gladbach seem most likely to begin the game with a 3-5-2 lineup, giving starts to Moritz Nicolas, Philipp Sander, Nico Elvedi, Kevin Diks, Jens Castrop, Hugo Bolin, Yannik Engelhardt, Kevin Stöger, Lukas Ullrich, Franck Honorat and Haris Tabakovic.

Gladbach manager Eugen Polanski has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Alejo Sarco (Foot injury), Giovanni Reyna (muscular problems), Robin Hack (Knee problems) and Tim Kleindienst (Knee surgery) are not able to play. Rocco Reitz will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.
