SC Freiburg vs Schalke Predictions

• Freiburg have won the last five meetings without conceding
• Both teams to score has only landed in one of Schalke’s last seven league games
• Freiburg have not beaten any team in the Bundesliga more than Schalke

Freiburg to continue red-hot start

Freiburg are a team who won’t have wanted the international break to come after a red-hot start to the season which saw them win six and draw one of their seven games.

They scored at least three goals in five of those clashes and will be looking to pick up where they left off against Schalke, who have had a decent start to the new campaign on return to the top flight.

The visitors picked up a win over Union Berlin and managed to hold Bayern Munich to a goalless draw, although they were beaten 3-0 by Augsburg in their opening game of the season.

Visitors look goalshy

Goals have been a concern, with only Hamburg scoring fewer than their three, but they have managed to keep things tight at the back.

However, against such an in-form attacking unit, they may struggle to contain Freiburg and the hosts are fancied to win this one.

The Breisgau Brazilians have won the last five head-to-heads without conceding and that run is fancied to continue as the visitors look toothless going forward.

Two of the last four meetings between this pair have finished 2-0 to Freiburg and a repeat of that looks a big runner as Schalke are taken to keep this respectable.
