This analysis was prepared before kick-off. The conclusions use only information available before the match and do not include the final result or post-match statistics.

General match analysis

Freiburg have won 4 of their last 5 matches and remain unbeaten, although Schalke are also in good form, with 3 wins and 2 draws. Home advantage could prove decisive: Freiburg have won both of their home matches so far, scoring an average of 4.5 goals and conceding just 0.5. Schalke average 1.5 goals scored and 2 conceded away from home. Freiburg also create more dangerous chances in front of their home crowd, with an average xG of 2.02, while Schalke allow their opponents an xG of 2.65 away. The visitors can still threaten the opposition goal, averaging 7.5 shots on target in away matches, but their conversion rate is 10%, compared with Freiburg’s 24% at home. Given the disparity in finishing and defensive performance, a home win is the most likely outcome.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Freiburg have averaged 3.2 goals over their last 5 matches, while Schalke are yet to keep a clean sheet away from home, which points to a goal for the hosts. The visitors have averaged 1.5 goals and 7.5 shots on target per away match, so they also have attacking credentials. However, the signal is not clear-cut: Freiburg have yet to score at home and have not conceded there, while Schalke have failed to score in 50% of their away matches. In the teams’ last 5 matches, both sides scored in 60% and 40% of games respectively, so BTTS - Yes has a moderate, rather than strong, edge.

Over/Under - goals analysis

In their last 5 matches, Freiburg scored an average of 3,2 goals and conceded 1,0, for a total of 4,2 goals per game. Schalke scored 1,8 goals per game over the same period, while its average xG against was 1,52, giving the hosts reason to believe they can create several chances. A more cautious forecast than Freiburg’s recent results might suggest is supported by its home xG of 0,87 and the fact that Schalke’s last 5 matches averaged 2,4 goals. Even so, the league average is 3,81 goals, and at least 3 goals were scored in 80% of Freiburg’s last 5 matches. With a projected total of 3,30 goals, the strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals, with an estimated probability of 84%.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Freiburg led at the break in 4 of their last 5 matches, while Schalke did so in only 1 of 5, making a Freiburg half-time lead the most likely outcome. Over this period, Freiburg averaged 1.8 goals before half-time, compared with Schalke’s 0.4, further strengthening the case for the hosts. Freiburg have won 4 of their last 5 matches and averaged 3.2 goals, compared with Schalke’s 3 wins and 1.8 goals, giving them a stronger basis for maintaining their advantage through to the final whistle. Caution is warranted, however: Freiburg drew at half-time in both of their two home matches, while their average xG was 0.87 compared with Schalke’s 1.73 away from home. Despite this contrast, Freiburg’s stronger results and finishing over their last five matches point primarily to a lead at the break and a win at full-time in the HT/FT market.
