Player to watch – Noah Atubolu
Freiburg have kept three clean sheets in a row in the Bundesliga and promising young goalkeeper Noah Atubolu played an integral part in each shutout.
Atubolu could be key again
Atubolu, who turns just 23 in May, kept a clean sheet in Freiburg’s narrow win over Werder Bremen in October and the impressive up-and-comer will be keen to put his rapid reflexes to good use again in Friday’s rematch.
