Pre-game odds and win probability: Freiburg are major underdogs

*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Any lingering hopes Darmstadt had of enacting a great escape this season were all but dashed last weekend when they were trounced 4-0 by relegation rivals Mainz. The confidence-shattering result should leave them limp for Sunday’s game, and the bookies think Darmstadt have just a 25% chance of beating Freiburg.

Our latest football predictions have also backed the visitors to prevail, despite their convincing 4-1 loss at home to RB Leipzig last time out. Freiburg have been doing some good work on the road of late and a third successive victory on the road could be in the works.

Freiburg dropped points in unexpected fashion when they were held to a 1-1 draw by Darmstadt back in November in what was the first encounter between the clubs in six years.

Darmstadt preview: Hosts could be unchanged

Fabio Torsiello, Fabian Nurnberger, Marvin Mehlem and Fraser Hornby are all out of action for Darmstadt. The visitors are unlikely to make many changes to the XI that lost convincingly at Mainz last weekend.

Predicted lineup: Schuhen – Bader, Klarer, Isherwood, Holland – Manu, Franjic, Justvan, Honsak – Vihlelmsson, Skarke

Player to watch – Michael Gregoritsch

Austrian international forward Michael Gregoritsch has been something of an away-day specialist for Freiburg this season and four of his six Bundesliga goals this season have been scored on the road for his club.

Gregoritsch to threaten again?

Michael Gregoritsch managed to etch his name onto the scoresheet in each of Freiburg’s last two away assignments and the 29-year-old’s knack for netting on his travels could make him an interesting candidate in the anytime goalscorer market again on Sunday.
