It's kicking off...
There's two yellow cards and a scramble in the Leipzig box as Schlager and Holer fight over the ball for a corner. The Leipzig man has to be calmed down by the match official before the set piece can be taken.

Freiburg pull one back!
A fine passing move sees Grifo have some fun on the edge of the box before firing in beautifully from range. The attacker, who didn't even start today, is now Mainz's outright second top scorer of all time.

Xavi Simons requires treatment as replays show Eggestein's boot landed right on his hand. A painful one for the Dutch youngster.

Streich's auf Wiedersehen
Top 5 farewell
Interestingly, the Leipzig game will mark the last time Freiburg face a team currently in the top five this season. After RBL's visit, Streich's side will only face sides in the bottom half of the table in the remainder of the campaign.

Leipzig's tasty trio
Pressure rising
Marco Rose's men won three on the bounce before last weekend's scoreless draw against Mainz led to points dropped in the search for a Champions League place. Borussia Dortmund took advantage to stretch their lead in fourth spot to three points over their Saxony-based rivals, who are now under pressure to respond this weekend.

Streich farewell-tour continues
Coming up together
Freiburg and Leipzig were both promoted to the Bundesliga in the summer of 2016 and have remained in the top flight ever since. The team from the Black Forest may have come up as champions of the second division back then, but Leipzig have since notched up 128 more points than Freiburg in the Bundesliga since.
