Freiburg preview: European dream
In midweek, Freiburg completed a 6-1 aggregate victory of Celta Vigo in their UEFA Europa League quarter-final tie with an impressive 3-1 victory over the Galicians at Balaidos in the second-leg the other day.
The home team have remained steady in the Bundesliga, despite their European exploits. They did earn themselves a win last weekend, too, with a 1-0 defeat of a similarly strong Mainz side away from home.
Heidenheim preview: Showing fight
They now face a Heidenheim side that remain rock-bottom in the Bundesliga and they have been destined for the drop throughout the campaign but they are showing some signs of fight in the last few weeks with five points collected from their last five matches.
The visitors managed to defeat Union Berlin by three goals to one at the Voith Arena due to a brace of goals scored by Martin Honsak as well as a late clincher from Budu Zivzivadze after Leopold Querfeld got one back for Union.

Freiburg vs Heidenheim prediction
Heidenheim begin this weekend's round of fixtures sitting six points adrift of the relegation playoff place and nine adrift of outright safety ahead of the 30th match day of the campaign. They will likely, once again, take the game to a potentially fatigued Freiburg side and, while the hosts do naturally remain firm favourites, it may end up being a more than decent watch for the neutral on Sunday afternoon.
Freiburg vs Heidenheim tip: Over 2.5 goals
