Bookmaker ratings: Prediction two: Total goals over 2.5 – 1.74
Freiburg will be looking to bounce back after losing to Borussia Dortmund last week.
Although we put Freiburg as favourites, we don’t think they will win by much, remembering that Stuttgart are undefeated in their last 5 matches.
In 5 of the 6 meetings between those teams in Mercedes Arena, more than 2.5 goals were scored. Considering that both sides have good attacking options, we expect to see a couple of goals.
Stuttgart remain unbeaten after their opening two Bundesliga games for the first time since 2011/12.
After escaping relegation last term, Die Roten kicked off their new season with two draws, which is a pretty good result for them. Currently, Pellegrino Matarazzo’s side are unbeaten in their last 5 league matches.
On the other hand, Freiburg were close to registering back-to-back wins in the new Bundesliga campaign, but they conceded three goals in 11 minutes to end up losing 1:3 to Borussia Dortmund.
It’s fair to say, that Freiburg’s goalkeeper Mark Flekken changed the course of the match, as he made severe mistakes.
Meanwhile, Freiburg are strong when they play as away team. They thrashed Augsburg on their opening day (4:0), which means that they have just one loss in their previous 10 matches away from home (W7, D2)
Wahidullah Faghir and Tanguy Coulibaly are ruled out for this match.
Meanwhile, the visitors are missing Kevin Schade, Lukas Kubler and Kimberly Ezekwem.
Stuttgart: Muller; Mavropanos, Anton, Ito, Sosa, Fuhrich, Endo, Ahamada, Vagnoman, Mvumpa, Kaljdzic
Freiburg: Flekken; Gunter, Ginter, Lienhart, Sildillia, Grifo, Jeong, Eggestein, Doan, Hofler, Gregoritsch
