Freiburg vs Ingolstadt: Preview and Predictions

Freiburg vs Ingolstadt
German Bundesliga
Date: Saturday, 13th May 2017
Kick-off at 14:30 UK/ 15:30 CET
Venue: Schwarzwald-Stadion.

Freiburg jumped on to the fifth position with the third consecutive win on the home patch last weekend when they saw off Schalke 04 2-0.

The team led by Christian Streich will have a nice opportunity to make it four on the bounce this Saturday when they host the relegation-threatened Ingolstadt at Schwarzwald-Stadion.

The hosts hold the pole position in the battle for Europa League spots for the next season as they are a single point off Hertha BSC and two points ahead of Koln with two games left to play.

Europa League is definitely very attractive for teams like Freiburg and there will be no doubts that the hosts will be highly motivated to pick up points against the struggling Ingolstadt side this weekend.

The visitors will have a mountain to climb to save the elite class status in the final two games.

They could well lose all hopes for such an achievement after this weekend because getting points from Schwarzwald-Stadion will be one hell of a task for Maik Walpurgis and his men.

Ingolstadt did have a nice opportunity to make a huge step last Saturday when they held the lead against Bayer Leverkusen. They were unfortunate enough to drop it 12 minutes from time to stay winless in fourth consecutive fixture.

Freiburg vs Ingolstadt: Head to head

This will only be the third head to head meeting between the two sides.

The teams took a win each in the 2008/09 season of 2. Bundesliga, while Freiburg came out victorious from the first part of the Bundesliga campaign.

Freiburg vs Ingolstadt: Prediction

This is definitely the last train to catch for Ingolstadt, but we just can’t see them picking up points from in-form Freiburg.

We will try and take advantage of the odds to back the home win as the top betting option.
