THE PREDICTION
Werder Bremen will be fresh after last Sunday’s fixture against Arminia Bielefeld was postponed due to snow. While Florian Kohfeldt’s side have not exactly dazzled this season, it looks unlikely that there will be a repeat of the last-gasp relegation drama they were involved in last year. Sitting in 11th place, Werder have lost just one of their last five league games but conversely, they have only won one of their last seven on home turf, drawing three. Freiburg, whose long-serving coach Christian Streich extended his contract during the week, have lost just two of their last 12 Bundesliga matches - and they were against leaders Bayern Munich and high-flying Wolfsburg. Four of the last seven Bundesliga encounters between the teams have ended all square, including the reverse fixture, and with both proving hard to beat at the moment, another draw looks likely.
