Head-to-Head

Key Players

• Freiburg boss Julian Schuster has introduced a little more possession-based football to the game plan since taking over in July 2024, but the structure-first approach that made Christian Streich’s teams famous remains.
• Freiburg will try to control the pace of the match and will set up with either three or five at the back, depending on the opponent, while their disciplined midfield is structured to press in a mid-block.
• Igor Matanovic has two Bundesliga goals in four appearances this term and looks a very good choice in the anytime scorer market as the consistent threat in attack for the Breisgau Brazilians.
• Dino Toppmöller’s appointment at Frankfurt has brought a more up-and-at-it style of play to the club since he took over in July 2023.
• Can Uzun has scored five goals in six Bundesliga matches and carries Frankfurt’s biggest scoring burden, making him a decent anytime bet in this contest.
• Jonathan Burkardt has five of Frankfurt’s last 14 goals in his last five appearances and could be one of the stars of the show in this all-important fixture.
