Both Teams to Score
Freiburg produced one of the biggest shocks of the domestic campaign in Germany in midweek when they came from behind to beat Bayern in the quarter-finals of the DFB Pokal in Munich, in a clash that maintained the long-running BTTS tradition of the fixture. Incredibly, nine of the last ten encounters between Freiburg and Bayern Munich have produced goals at both ends and we’re tipping that trend to continue in Saturday’s latest iteration.
Over 2.5 Goals
Thomas Tuchel enjoyed a dream start to his Bayern Munich rein in last weekend’s Der Klassiker win over Dortmund, though he tasted his first disappointment in rapid-fire time in the Bavarians’ surprise cup loss to Freiburg. Tuchel will want his team to chase revenge in Saturday’s rematch between the teams in the Bundesliga and an open game could ensue as a result. Over 2.5 goals have been scored in each of the last eight tussles between the sides and our second Freiburg vs Bayern Munich prediction advises a stake in the same direction.

Freiburg vs Bayern Munich Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Freiburg vs Bayern Munich lineups and team news for Saturday’s Bundesliga battle below. If you’re looking for more of the best football betting tips today, make sure to follow the link.
Freiburg
Defenders Lukas Kubler and Philipp Lienhart are both doubts for Freiburg, while midfielder Daniel-Kofi Kyereh is a long-term absentee. Freiburg played with a flat 4-4-2 formation against Bayern Munich in midweek and head coach Christian Streich could stick with the same set-up on Saturday.
Predicted Lineup for Freiburg: Flekken – Sildillia, Ginter, Gulde, Gunter – Doan, Eggestein, Hofler, Grifo – Holer, Gregoritsch
Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich are still without Manuel Neuer and Lucas Hernandez, while Mathys Tel is out until later in the month with a groin complaint. Dayot Upamecano is suspended at the back, though Noussair Mazraoui should shake off a cold in time to join Die Roten's squad.
Predicted Lineup for Bayern Munich: Sommer – Cancelo, Pavard, de Ligt, Davies – Kimmich, Goretzka, Coman, Sane, Muller – Choupo-Moting
Player to Watch – Nicolas Höfler
Nicolas Höfler wrote his name into Freiburg folklore in midweek when he scored a screamer from distance to help dump Bayern Munich out of the DFB Pokal on Tuesday evening. The 33-year-old buried his effort from long range and a second strike from the veteran late in the game earned Freiburg their crucial winning penalty kick when his punt was handballed by Jamal Musiala.
