Freiburg vs Hertha Berlin Prediction: Win or drop for Freiburg

The international break is over and these two can return to the Bundesliga. Freiburg have some unfinished business and are in dire need of good results after a poor run of games. They crashed out of the Europa League against Juventus and were held to a draw in the next match. Hertha Berlin are also without a win in their last 3 matches and are struggling to find their way out of the relegation zone. A very vital 3 points for these two clubs who are on opposite sides of the table.

Freiburg have not been doing so well recently and this can be a serious threat to their ambitions of finishing in the top 4. Leipzig are just 1 point behind and have similar ambitions as Freiburg. In their last 5 matches, Freiburg had 1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses. 

Freiburg played a 1-1 draw away to Mainz in their last match before the break. Ritsu Doan scored the first and only goal for Freiburg in the 55th minute, but the team failed to hold on, as the hosts equalised in the 96th minute to earn a draw.

Freiburg are in 4th spot on the table, with 46 points from 25 matches. They recorded 13 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses and a goal ratio of 38:34. At home Freiburg have 8 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss in 12 matches.

Hertha Berlin are on the borderline of the relegation zone with the battle heating up. Hertha have recorded 3 losses, 1 draw and 1 win in their last 5 matches. They played their last game before the break against Hoffenheim away from home and they lost 3-1. The hosts had the game under control from the first half,as Andrej Kramaric scored a double from the spot. Ihlas Bebou also got a goal in the 51st minute before Stefan Jovetic pulled on back for Berlin in the dying minutes.

Hertha Berlin are in the 16th position on the table, with 21 points from 25 matches. They have 5 wins, 6 draws and 14 losses and a goal ratio of 30:48. They are the poorest team when playing away from home, as they have just 1 win, 1 draw and 10 losses in all 12 away matches.

Hertha Berlin and Freiburg have played 20 matches against each other. Freiburg have a record of 8 wins, while Hertha Berlin have 4 wins and 8 matches ended in stalemate.

Freiburg desperately need to keep up the momentum in this part of the season and to do that, they need to discover their earliest form. In the long run, I think Leipzig might end higher but Freiburg is sure to qualify for at least a European competition next season and it all starts from matches like these.
