Prediction

  • These two teams endured contrasting emotions in European football on Thursday.
  • Freiburg were hammered 5-0 at West Ham, while Leverkusen scored twice in added time to edge past Qarabag to stretch their unbeaten run to an astonishing 37 games.
  • All-conquering Leverkusen remain 10 points clear of nearest challengers Bayern and appear to be cruising to their first-ever league title.
  • Freiburg have conceded 19 goals in their last eight Bundesliga games, but grabbed a first league win in six games at Bochum last Sunday.
  • Leverkusen won the reverse fixture 2-1, but Freiburg should never be underestimated on home soil and this will not be a walk in the park for Xabi Alonso's side.
