SC Freiburg vs Paderborn Predictions

• Freiburg have won three of their last four Bundesliga home games.
• Paderborn have lost four of their last six Bundesliga away games.
• Paderborn have conceded at least two goals in six of their eight Bundesliga away games this season.
• Paderborn have failed to score in just one of their last seven Bundesliga fixtures.

Paderborn’s poor away record

Freiburg will host bottom-of-the-table Paderborn this Saturday in the German Bundesliga. Freiburg will be hoping to earn all three points in Saturday’s game versus struggling Paderborn. Paderborn’s poor away record doesn’t help their cause as they look to continue their battle against relegation this Saturday.

Paderborn have lost five of their eight Bundesliga away games this season, winning just one. Furthermore, Paderborn have also lost four of their last six Bundesliga away games. 

Freiburg will be encouraged by Paderborn’s struggles on the road going into this Saturday’s tie. In contrast to Paderborn, Freiburg’s recent home form has been positive in recent weeks. The hosts have won three of their last four Bundesliga home games. They will hope to add to this positive run of home form this weekend.

We may see goals at both ends in this game

We feel that both of these teams stand a decent chance at getting on the scoresheet in Saturday’s fixture. Firstly, it’s been rare for Freiburg not to get themselves on the scoresheet this season. They have scored at least one goal in 16 of their 18 Bundesliga games going into this Saturday’s fixture.

Meanwhile, Paderborn have similarly been reliable in front of goal in recent weeks. They have scored at least one goal in six of their last seven Bundesliga fixtures. 

Both of these sides have been difficult to shut out in recent weeks. However, neither of these two have been particularly solid at the back of late. Freiburg have kept just one clean sheet in their last seven Bundesliga fixtures. Meanwhile, Paderborn have kept just two clean sheets in their 18 Bundesliga games this season. 

While both of these sides will be capable of scoring in this game, neither of them have shown a high level of defensive quality in recent weeks. We feel that this is likely to make for goals at both ends in Saturday’s game.

This fixture may result in a tight scoreline

We feel that this game is unlikely to be decided by a large goal margin. Paderborn have conceded at least two goals in six of their eight Bundesliga away games this season. However, Freiburg have failed to score more than two goals in any of their last 14 Bundesliga games.

Each of Freiburg’s last three wins have come by a margin of just one goal. Furthermore, Only one of their last seven games has been decided by more than a single goal. Similarly, only two of Paderborn’s last eight Bundesliga fixtures have been decided by more than just a single goal. 

We feel that Freiburg have a good chance of taking all three points from this game. They have enjoyed more positive results at home recently than Paderborn have, away from home. We are backing a Freiburg win here.

Freiburg have scored exactly two goals in seven of their last 13 Bundesliga games. We feel that may do so again in this game. We feel that a 2-1 win for Freiburg is a potentially likely result of this game.
