Player to watch – Matthias Ginter
Only RB Leipzig (13) and Bayern Munich (12) have kept more clean sheets than Freiburg (10) in the Bundesliga this season and stalwart Matthias Ginter has been a key component in their watertight defence.

Ginter has been outstanding
Centre-half Ginter tops the pile for average clearances completed per game (4.00) for Freiburg in the league this term, while the 31-year-old has also had an impressive 83.5% pass success rate since August. Expect the veteran to marshal his backline with authority again on Sunday.
