Freiburg to Win
Top-four chasing Freiburg have lost only once in their last 13 Bundesliga assignments at the Europa-Park Stadion and they are strong enough on their own patch to extract three points from a test there against Schalke on Sunday. The visitors have failed to win all but one of their away fixtures in 2022/23, and the record isn’t likely to improve here. With the hosts a formidable force on home soil, our opening Freiburg vs Schalke prediction backs the Breisgau-Brasilianer to prevail.
Both Teams to Score
The second of our football predictions today advises bettors to consider a stake on both teams to score this weekend. Remarkably, BTTS has landed in seven of Freiburg’s last eight home games in the Bundesliga, while four of Schalke’s last seven tests in the division have also featured action at both ends. We expect chances to be created by both sides again on Sunday in what could be an open affair, so stick with BTTS again here.

Draw odds: 14/5 (3.80) – 26.3%
Schalke odds: 18/5 (4.60) – 21.7%
Unsurprisingly, given Schalke’s dismal away form, the visitors are not this weekend’s expected winners the probability of an away win currently stands at a small 21.7%. If you fancy over 2.5 goals to be notched, you can back that outcome with an implied probability of 52.4%, at 10/11 (1.91).
