Freiburg vs Frankfurt Prediction for 19 October 2025 - Football

🔊 Sunday's Bundesliga action kicks off with Freiburg taking on Eintracht at the Europa-Park Stadion. The hosts are on a six-match unbeaten run and are determined to extend their streak while seeking revenge for last season's home defeat to the Frankfurt side. Eintracht, on the other hand, arrive after a heavy loss to Bayern, having struggled defensively since the start of the season. Let's dive into the prediction to explain why we're anticipating a high-scoring affair in this matchup.

Head-to-Head

📊 In their last 37 encounters, Eintracht have held the upper hand, securing 17 victories, while Freiburg have managed just 8. Another 11 matches ended in a draw. Last season, the Frankfurt side dominated both clashes with an aggregate score of 7-2—winning 4-1 at home and 3-1 away.

Freiburg Team Overview

⚫ Julian Schuster's side are in solid form, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches across all competitions. However, the team has slightly lost momentum, following up three victories with three draws. In their previous outing, the "Brazilians of Breisgau" traveled to Gladbach, where they played out a dull goalless draw against a struggling Borussia (0-0). This encounter was largely forgettable, marking only Freiburg's second clean sheet of the season.

⚪ Currently, the team sits in 9th place, and a win could see them leapfrog Eintracht and edge closer to the European competition spots. Their goal difference stands even at nine scored and nine conceded. Among the leaders in the goal and assist tally are Vincenzo Grifo (2 goals, 1 assist), Junior Adamu (1 goal, 2 assists), and Igor Matanović (2 goals).

Eintracht Frankfurt Team Overview

🔴 Dino Toppmöller's Eagles suffered a home defeat against Bayern (0-3). Despite the backing from the stands, Frankfurt could hardly put up any resistance against the Munich side. This loss marks their third of the season, with three wins and no draws to their name.

⚪ Eintracht have conceded 16 goals — the worst record in the league. They've scored 17, largely thanks to the efforts of Can Uzun (5 goals, 3 assists), Ritsu Doan (2 goals, 3 assists), who recently joined from Freiburg, and Fares Chaibi (1 goal, 3 assists). They are one point ahead of Freiburg and could break back into the top six with a win. However, that's easier said than done: in their last four matches across all competitions, Eintracht have let in 16 goals and suffered three defeats. The Bayern clash was the only game this season where the Eagles failed to score, so the attack isn't under scrutiny — it's the defense that needs addressing.

Freiburg

🎙️ Julian Schuster on the upcoming opponent: "I'm sure the number of goals conceded has been a topic within their team, and they've worked hard on it during the international break. We need to defend well to neutralize their strengths. They are a very versatile team, and we must be prepared for anything."

📝 According to Sky Sport, Inter Milan are considering signing Noah Atubolu next summer, with talks planned for the 23-year-old goalkeeper.

🏥 Noah Atubolu, who was called up to the Germany national team by Julian Nagelsmann for the first time, had to leave the squad early due to a knee injury but has already returned to training. Cyriak Irie is not yet ready to play on Sunday, although he has resumed individual training after recovering from malaria. Daniel-Kofi Kyereh continues his recovery from a knee injury.

Eintracht Frankfurt

🎙️ Dino Toppmöller at the pre-match press conference ahead of the trip to Freiburg: "It's a 50-50 match, tense and competitive. We expect to face a team that actively capitalizes on second balls thanks to their solid structure. In the opponent's half, they showcase quality combination play, move well in the final third, frequently deliver crosses, and pose a threat on set pieces. We're anticipating good football and fantastic weeks ahead. But it's crucial to live in the present – all focus is on Freiburg right now."

📝 According to Brazilian sources, Eintracht are interested in Gabriel Jesus. The German club has inquired about the 28-year-old forward, who is ready to leave Arsenal for more playing time and a chance to make Brazil's World Cup squad. Additionally, Bild reports that Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Arsenal are monitoring left-back Nathaniel Brown – Eintracht are open to offers starting at 60 million euros.

🏥 Rasmus Kristensen and Jessic Ngankam have returned to training. Mario Götze is also ready for the upcoming match. Elias Baum is sidelined with a hip injury, and Nnamdi Collins is out with a cold.

🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards

🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards

The match will be officiated by Deniz Aytekin, a German referee of Turkish descent. On average, he hands out around four yellow cards per match. However, the average number of cautions in games between these two teams is lower at 2.86. Our bet: Freiburg's individual total under 2.5 yellow cards – this has hit in the last five rounds of the current season and in the last five head-to-head matches against Eintracht.

⚽ Goal Prediction

We recommend the bet both teams to score (yes) – this has come through in six of the last seven head-to-head encounters in the league. Additionally, this bet has landed in Freiburg's last ten matches and in seven of Eintracht's last eight games.

🚩 Corner Prediction

Freiburg have played nine matches across all competitions, averaging four corners per game. Eintracht have also played nine matches but approach the corner flag more frequently, averaging 5.6 times. We suggest the bet Freiburg's individual total over 3.5 corners – this has been successful in seven consecutive head-to-head clashes and in the last six matches of the "Brazilians from Breisgau."

Freiburg appear to be more balanced, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches and drawing the last three in low-scoring affairs. Eintracht, on the other hand, consistently engage in high-scoring games, regardless of the outcome, and have yet to draw this season. History favors Frankfurt as Freiburg have failed to defeat the Eagles in their last six encounters. We believe the trend of high-scoring games involving Eintracht will continue, and thus we opt for a bet on over 2.5 goals, considering Frankfurt's unbeaten streak against Freiburg might persist. A likely scoreline is 2-2.
