Bayer Leverkusen holds a clear advantage in overall seasonal form with 13 victories compared to Freiburg's 9 wins. The hosts have an impressive home record with a 64% win rate and an average of 1.91 goals per game; however, their recent form raises concerns—only 1.4 points per game in the last five matches. Despite a weaker away record (50% wins), Leverkusen possesses a better average possession (58% vs 52%) and higher scoring rate in recent matches (1.6 PPG). A key factor is that Freiburg has conceded 39 goals this season while scoring just 34, indicating defensive issues. Considering the quality of the Leverkusen squad and their solid form in recent fixtures (2 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss), the visitors have a real chance of securing a victory, though Freiburg's strength at home makes a close match likely.
