Competition: Bundesliga
Market: Both teams to score
Odds: 10/11 @ 888sport
In what could prove to be another lively Bundesliga affair on Saturday afternoon, Koln will welcome Freiburg to the RheinEnergieStadion.
Starting with the hosts, while some in Koln’s camp might have been looking over their shoulder at a potential relegation scrap prior to March’s international break, the Billy Goats have come roaring back in an eye-catching fashion. Skyrocketing away from any kind of bottom-three battle, Steffen Baumgart should find the mood in his camp at a season-high. Last seen putting in a thumping display as they stormed their way to a 3-1 romp away at Hoffenheim, Koln have found quite the clinical edge in the final third. Now unbeaten in each of their last four Bundesliga appearances since returning from the fortnight interval, the former Paderborn boss will be calling on his men to make another top-flight statement here. With their recent flurry highlighted by another 3-1 victory against Augsburg on April 8th, Saturday’s hosts have also gained a reputation for their lively outcomes. It should be noted, Baumgart’s side have seen four of their last five Bundesliga showdowns finish with both teams finding the net.
As for the visitors, while Freiburg might have seen their Europa League adventure come to an end at the hands of Italian giants Juventus last month, Christian Streich’s side have continued on yet another stellar domestic romp this season. Opening this weekend’s fixtures sat in pole position to claim a famous Champions League spot, the Reds have now won three of their last four appearances against Bundesliga opposition. Punching their DFP Pokal semi-final ticket on April 4th as they picked up a stunning 2-1 victory away at defending champions Bayern Munich, Saturday’s guests are looking to make another statement here. Last seen storming their way to a routine 4-0 romp at home against Schalke, Freiburg have also suffered just a single defeat from any of their last seven appearances across all competitions. However, it should be noted, with Streich’s side seeing each of their last three away fixtures finish with both teams finding the net, we are backing a similar outcome here.
