Freiburg vs Olympiacos: Prediction, Team News, Lineups

Freiburg is set to face Olympiacos in the Europa League on Thursday, with Freiburg seeking to secure their place in the knockout rounds, while Olympiacos aims to keep their slim hopes for a top-two finish alive. Freiburg’s recent form has been less than stellar, failing to win their last two Bundesliga matches, whereas Olympiacos followed up a home win against West Ham with a defeat in London.

Freiburg, despite their domestic struggles, have fared well in the Europa League, winning three of their first four fixtures in Group A and sitting joint top alongside West Ham United. They need to avoid defeat against Olympiacos to guarantee qualification to the knockout rounds.

On the other hand, Olympiacos’ hopes of avoiding elimination are hanging by a thread, sitting third in Group A. Victory last weekend has given them a much-needed boost, but they have failed to win any of their last eight European away games, and have lost 11 of their last 12 meetings with German clubs.

Freiburg’s lengthy injury list includes Christian Gunter, Lukas Kubler, Daniel-Kofi Kyereh, Max Rosenfelder, Maximilian Philipp, and Yannik Keitel. Meanwhile, Olympiacos’ injury concerns include Nicolas Freire, Jackson Porozo, Gustavo Scarpa, and Doron Leidner.

Freiburg’s Vincenzo Grifo has been directly involved in six goals in four Europa League matches this season, while Olympiacos’ Ayoub El Kaabi scored twice against Freiburg in the reverse fixture.

We predict a close 2-1 victory for Freiburg as they seek qualification to the knockout rounds. If you’re looking for more game predictions and tips, visit Sporita.com.
