Freiburg vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Bundesliga

The home side are without a win in four matches.

Freiburg are set to take on Borussia Dortmund at the Europa-Park Stadion on Saturday in round 28 of Bundesliga 2024-25 action. The home side are without a win in their last four matches as they aim to get back to winning ways. 

Freiburg have endured a mixed campaign so far, with the team languishing in seventh position in the overall standings. They have accumulated 42 points from 27 matches and are currently trailing fourth-place Mainz by three points as they aim for the top four places. However, their recent record hasn’t been great after managing to gather three draws while losing against Union Berlin in the last match. 

Meanwhile, Borussia Dortmund returned to winning ways in the last match, securing a 3-1 victory over Mainz. It has been a tough season for them as they find themselves in tenth position, which is one of their worst campaigns. The top four places look tough for them now as they trail Mainz by seven points, but they have a chance, considering they still have seven matches to play.
