Wolfsburg hosts Freiburg in round 9 of the German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Saturday, October 23rd at Volkswagen Arena (Wolfsburg)
Wolfsburg began to experience serious problems in the Bundesliga. The last three rounds ended in defeats. The streak without wins amounts to four matches (three losses and one draw). As a result, Mark van Bommel's charges moved to the 6th line in the standings with 13 points scored. The gap to the Champions League zone is already three points. It is important to note that Wolfsburg’s defense, which was quite reliable at the start of the season, allowed the opponents to score at least two goals in the last three matches. In total, the Wolves have already conceded ten goals (with nine goals scored). In the last round, Wolfsburg lost to Borussia Monchengladbach at home (1-3). All home indicators of the Green-Whites look like this: two wins, one draw, and one loss. On October 20, Wolfsburg played an away match in the Champions League against RB Salzburg and lost 3-1. I think you perfectly understand how much effort the Wolves had to spend.

Freiburg is a team that is rightfully considered the main revelation of the current Bundesliga season. Christian Streich's charges have long established themselves as strong middle peasants in the elite division. But now they are in 4th place in the standings with 16 points. What is most interesting is that the Breisgau Brazilians remain the only team that did not suffer a single defeat in the championship (four victories and four draws). Their goal difference is 12-6. No one in the elite division conceded less. Freiburg gained two wins and two draws in four away games with a goal difference of 5-3. It is noteworthy that the “Brazilians” scored more than one goal in both won matches.
Even though Wolfsburg is stronger in terms of the roster, I do not consider the Wolves favorites. First, they are in bad shape right now. Secondly, van Bommel's players will be tired after the Champions League, where, as you know, there are no easy matches. In my opinion, Freiburg has excellent chances to extend the streak without defeats. The Brazilians will be fresh. Moreover, they don't really care where to play in the current season. With luck, Streich's men can win. I propose to bet on 2X.
Prediction for the match: Freiburg to win with +0.5 handicap
