Dortmund are on a roll. They were all able to win their last 3 competitive games , after the past year was not very successful. In Germany's strongest football league , they decided 6 games and accepted 1 draw. Once they gave up. They finished 19 times and only allowed 8 goals . Only in 3 of the 8 home games were there goals. Abroad they decided 5 games and suffered 5 defeats. 14:17 is the away goal balance.

This will soon continue for BVB, because on February 15th, 2023 they will face Chelsea in the round of 16. In the Champions League tips we provide you with a prognosis. Dortmund are also still represented in the DFB Cup . They will meet Bochum in the round of 16 on February 8th, 2023.
On July 1st, 2022, Edin Terzic was contracted again as the main trainer. He won a game against Freiburg and Streich and was defeated once. The 40-year-old has an average success rate as a coach of 1.95 PPS, with an average of 1.88 points after 26 games with Borussia. In 2020/21 he was coach at BVB for 29 games. At that time 2.00 PPS were possible . At that time he won the DFB Cup with Dortmund.
Freiburg analysis
The people of Breisgau were able to digest their shock from the 0:6 loss against Wolfsburg at the beginning of the year, because a 1:1 against Frankfurt and a 3:1 win against Augsburg followed . Even if this balance reads positively, this does not apply to away, because none of the last 3 away games won them. Recently they even conceded their 2nd away defeat in a row. Since mid-October things haven't been running smoothly for Freiburg abroad.
In general, 4 wins and 2 draws have been possible abroad so far. They gave up 3 times. They finished 13 times and allowed 18 goals. Only in 3 of the 9 away games were goals scored here and there. In front of their home crowd they celebrated 6 wins and suffered 2 draws and only 1 loss. The home goal record is 16:7. The Freiburg team will also continue in the DFB Cup . On February 7th, 2023 they meet Sandhausen in the round of 16. The UEFA Cup adventure isn't over yet either. As group winners, they could qualify directly for the Europa League Round of 16.
Christian Streich has been under contract with SC Freiburg as the main trainer since December 29th, 2011. The 57-year-old has an average success rate as a coach of 1.60 PPS. In 422 games with the Freiburgers, however, the point average is only 1.46. Of 20 games against BVB, he only decided 2 and accepted only 3 draws. He had to admit defeat 15 times . After all, he was able to win once against Terzic, but was also defeated once.
Borussia Dortmund - Freiburg: What to expect?
Both teams have faced each other 48 times to date. BVB and 6 Freiburg decided 30 games. They shared the points 12 times. In Dortmund, the Breisgauer only won once and only managed 3 draws. On October 21, 2001 they celebrated their only away win against Borussia. On January 27th, 2018 they managed the last away draw. Dortmund has won 6 of the last 10 matches and Freiburg has decided 2 games. 2 times they drew . Borussia scored 25 and Freiburg 10 goals. 8 times more than 2.5 goals - 6 times even more than 3.5 goals - and 6 times both came to a conclusion.
We can recommend BVB to win for the betting slip. Because of the half-time wins of Dortmund in the home duels against Freiburg, we would give a 1/1 Halftime - Fulltime (HT/FT) which is more risky. We would also use such an offer for an over 3.5 goals bet, where we also have an over 2.5 goals bet. The odds are still reasonably attractive with this one. Even if the record of the direct duels and the away record of the Breisgauer does not speak for it, we believe they can score at least one goal and would therefore say "yes" to both teams to score.
- Borussia Dortmund to win
- Borussia Dortmund to win from 1st Half (1/1 HT/FT)
- Both teams to score
- Over 3.5
- Over 2.5
