Freiburg vs Borussia Dortmund
Germany – Bundesliga
Date: Saturday, 6 February 2021
Kick-off at 14:30 UK/ 15:30 CET
Venue: Schwarzwald-Stadion (Freiburg).
Borussia Dortmund will be looking to climb to the Champions League berth when they take on Freiburg in what is expected to be the most exciting game of Saturday’s program.
Edin Terzic’s troops recorded a 3-1 win over Augsburg at the weekend, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence.
Since Freiburg experienced all sorts of problems at the back in their last league match, away win should be considered.
Despite failing to convert a penalty in the win over Augsburg, Erling Haland will be the man to watch in the away team.
Freiburg were anything but impressive in the 3-0 defeat loss to Wolfsburg, and seeing that Borussia Dortmund eager to make amends for the poor first half of the season, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Edin Terzic’s men.
In the first half of the season Borussia Dortmund crushed Freiburg 4-0.
