Borussia Dortmund Freiburg betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This bout puts face-to-face two teams that have been campaigning somewhat different so far within the German Championship. While Borussia Dortmund is still in the top six, Freiburg appears in the second half of the qualifying table. The home team tends to attack from the flanks, standing in counter-attacks and individual plays, showing a lot of precision when finishing, but its defense has still given a lot of space to the opponent, failing especially in containing counter-attacks. Freiburg has difficulty maintaining possession of the ball and also at the time of finishing, while its defense fails in the coverage of the sides and in the interception of kicks from outside the area. So by playing at home and having a good attack, it is a good option to bet on the victory of Borussia Dortmund.
