Schmid almost catches Blaswich out!

Kampl puts Leipzig in front!
The substitute breaks the deadlock! The midfielder gets a bit of luck as a pass intended for Nkunku bounces off Gulde and back into his path, but he shows composure to lob Flekken. A huge goal!

Nkunku wastes huge chance
The forward looks certain to break the deadlock but is unable to keep control of the ball as he attempts to go around Flekken, and the opportunity goes begging.

Free-kick opportunity

Nervous start
The hosts, perhaps with that 5-1 defeat still on their minds, have not started confidently here, and the crowd are doing all they can to encourage their side.

Werner goes close again!
Freiburg can't handle the 27-year-old at the moment, as only a deflection denies him the open from his fierce drive.

Head-to-head
Leipzig have the better of the most recent meetings, winning in the Bundesliga and DFB-Cup this term and also edging last season's Cup final on penalties despite going down to 10 men. Freiburg have not beaten 'Die Rotenbullen' since 2019, when Niclas Höfler and Nils Petersen both scores in a 2-1 victory, meaning today's visitors are unbeaten in eight matches against Streich's men.

European guarantee
Following Bayer Leverkusen's defeat to Cologne on Friday night, Freiburg now know that a win would secure them UEFA Europa League football next season, guaranteeing them a finish in the top five. Leipzig, on the other hand, would all but mathematically be assured of a top-five finish with a win here.
Streich: "Incredible to be ahead"
After 30 games of the season, and with just four left, Freiburg coach Christian Streich believes it is "incredible to be ahead of this team" He added: "we've earned this, and now they have to beat us if they want to go above us."

Omens
Freiburg have lost five of their six meetings this season against the current top five. The exception was their 4-1 win over Union Berlin on Matchday 15. However, they have only lost twice at home in the Bundesliga in 2022/23 - to Bayern and Borussia Dortmund.
Oh, Dani boy!
Dani Olmo scored one and produced three assists in Freiburg on Tuesday. The Spain international went off after 61 minutes, but only because of defender Josko Gvardiol's straight red card. Expect him to be fresh and firing on Saturday.
