Borussia Dortmund vs. Freiburg - prediction, free online stream , lineups

The upcoming Bundesliga clash between Borussia Dortmund and Freiburg presents an intriguing matchup, particularly given the contrasting form of both teams. Dortmund currently occupies the 7th position in the league table and is seeking to recover from a disappointing 3-1 defeat against Mainz . Despite their recent struggles, they have maintained a formidable home record at Signal Iduna Park, boasting seven consecutive victories this season. This home advantage may play a crucial role as Dortmund aims to close the gap on league leaders Bayern Munich.

Freiburg lost each of their last six matches away to Dortmund. In 16 visits since 2001, Freiburg have at best drawn. There are fears among the visiting fans that this Saturday game could once again end in disappointment. 

In last season’s visit to Dortmund, Freiburg suffered a 3-0 defeat. Coming into this game, they have no win in their last three league matches. They registered a second 0-0 draw, against Union Berlin in their last game before the international break.
