RB Leipzig to Win
Fourth hosts fifth when Freiburg host RB Leipzig this weekend in what looks like a pivotal fixture in the race to secure a top four Bundesliga finish this term. Just two points separate the sides ahead of Saturday’s game, though Leipzig visited the Europa-Park Stadion as recently as Tuesday evening for a DFB Pokal semi-final contest, a tie they won in convincing fashion with a 5-1 victory. That success should embolden Die Roten Bullen ahead of their return to the same venue and we begin our Freiburg vs RB Leipzig predictions by forecasting another away win.
Over 2.5 Goals
In what had been billed as a potentially tight cup clash on Tuesday, RB Leipzig ran riot and put five goals past Freiburg and while a repeat annihilation in the teams’ Bundesliga meeting on Saturday seems unlikely, excitement could still be the order of the day. With the hosts itching to restore some pride and Leipzig armed with self-belief having put eight goals past Freiburg in two meetings already this term, we expect both teams to push for points and an open skirmish could ensue. With those factors digested, over 2.5 goals looks like an option worth pursuing.

Freiburg vs RB Leipzig Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Freiburg vs RB Leipzig lineups and team news for Saturday’s Bundesliga contest below.
Freiburg
Midfielder Daniel-Kofi Kyereh is a long-term absentee for Freiburg, though the club's treatment room is relatively empty beyond that. Freiburg's 5-1 reverse to Leipzig in the DFB Pokal semi-finals in midweek was a major blow and it will be interesting to see how they respond on Saturday.
Predicted Lineup for Freiburg: Flekken – Kubler, Ginter, Lienhart, Gunter – Sallai, Eggestein, Hofler, Grifo – Holer, Gregoritsch
RB Leipzig
Xaver Schalger and Peter Gulasci are still out injured for RB Leipzig, though Die Roten Bullen's squad looks strong elsewhere. Leipzig blitzed Freiburg in midweek and were four goals to the good by half time in their cup semi-final win. They will be targeting more of the same this weekend.
Predicted Lineup for RB Leipzig: Blaswich – Henrichs, Orban, Gvardiol, Halstenberg – Laimer, Haidara, Szoboszlai, Werner, Olmo – Nkunku
Player to Watch – Dominik Szoboszlai
Dominik Szoboszlai was in sensational form in midweek in RB Leipzig’s 5-1 DFB Pokal semi-final triumph over Freiburg. The Hungarian international scored two of his team’s goals and was generally a menace throughout, and the 22-year-old will hope to trouble the same defence on Saturday.
