The Matchday 27 Bundesliga clash between Freiburg and Union will take place on March 30 at the Europa-Park Stadium. Freiburg vs. Union: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Freiburg
In the last round, Julian Schuster's side ended their six-match clean sheet run in the league. However, the match against Mainz (2-2) marked their seventh consecutive game without defeat in the Bundesliga (4 wins, 3 draws). Freiburg has only scored more than one goal for the second time in this stretch. Overall, the club has 36 goals – the fewest among teams in the European competition zone. In the standings, the team occupies the sixth position.
- No more than two goals have been scored in 5 of Freiburg's last 7 league matches.
- At home, the team has not lost in 8 of their last 9 Bundesliga games (6 wins, 2 draws).
- In 5 of the last 7 home games in this tournament, the club scored first.
Predicted lineup for Freiburg (4-5-1)
Noah Atubolu – Philipp Lienhart, Christian Günter, Matthias Ginter, Kiliann Sildillia – Patrick Osterhage, Maximilian Eggestein, Lucas Höler, Ritsu Doan, Vincenzo Grifo – Chikwubuike Adamu.
Union
In the last round, the Berliners caused a sensation by taking points from Bayern (1-1). This draw was Steffen Baumgart's side's first in their last six league matches (2 wins, 3 losses). It's worth noting that the team conceded in all matches during this stretch. In the standings, Union climbed to 13th place and moved seven points clear of the relegation zone.
- The club has not scored more than one goal in 6 of their last 8 Bundesliga games.
- Away from home, the Berliners have lost 7 of their last 9 league matches (2 wins).
- In 8 of the last 9 away matches in this tournament, Union conceded at least one goal.

Freiburg vs. Union: Match Prediction
In the last round, Julian Schuster's side ended their impressive clean sheet run in the league, but their opponent was Mainz, who are fighting for a Champions League spot and are among the top seven highest-scoring teams in the tournament. Meanwhile, at home, the club has not conceded in three consecutive Bundesliga matches. I believe Freiburg will also keep their next opponent at bay. Furthermore, the Berliners are second to last in goals scored, and away from home in this championship, Union has left the field without a goal more often than any other team – seven times.
In terms of the outcome, my preference is for the hosts. Freiburg has won 5 of their last 7 home league matches (1 draw, 1 loss). The Berliners, on the other hand, have lost 8 of their last 11 away games in this tournament, with two of their three victories coming against relegation-battling Hoffenheim and Holstein.
Considering these facts, my prediction: Freiburg to Win and Total under 3.5 goals
