Full-time: Union Berlin 0-0 Freiburg

A fair draw in a tight encounter despite Grifo's first-half penalty miss and a few decent chances for both teams in the second period. Lucas Höler's late effort was the best of the bunch, but both defences deserved a clean sheet in this one!

Lienhart loops header just over

Another good late Freiburg chance! Lienhart gets onto a delightful cross and Frederik Rønnow was left stranded in no-man's land having tried in vain to reach the cross. The header lands on the roof of the empty net.
84'

Fifth and final change for Union

Haberer is introduced for the final few minutes.
83'

Big chance for Freiburg!

Freiburg surge forward on a great break that leads to Eren Dinkçi backheeling the ball to Höler in the box. A superb sliding tackle from Diogo Leite disrupts the attacker's strike from around the penalty spot and Frederik Rønnow saves.
81'

No sign of a breakthrough

After a couple of chances at the Freiburg end, both sides have been passing the ball around carefully in the last while. Danilho Doekhi sends a testing cross in that is clear - it might take something special for either side to win this.
78'

Four new faces

Freiburg's first substitutions are also a triple change, while Querfeld comes on for the hosts shortly afterwards.

Skarke in space

The Union substitute breaks free on the left, cuts inside and sends a shot wide.

Triple change

Union Berlin bring three players on in the game's first substitutions - that might shake things up in the final phase....

Kemlein cracks shot in

Union work the ball well around the box to Kemlein just outside the area. The youngster shoots powerfully on the target, but Atubolu saves. Vertessen then has a header saved as Union press for an opener.

Freiburg in front on xG

information
xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals> xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals> goals).
A big part of that is probably due to the first-half penalty - which was missed, and it remains goalless.

Watch: Ritsu Dōan nominated for October Player of the Month

Here's why!

Two changes for Union

The Berlin club have brought in two fresh faces following last week's 3-0 defeat in Munich. Vertessen comes in for Jordan up top, while Skov takes Querfeld's place on the left.

Freiburg unchanged

Coach Schuster has stuck with the same 11 players that began last week's 0-0 draw against Mainz. There is plenty of attacking firepower on the bench should the Black Forest club struggle to find the net again, with Gregoritsch, Philipp and Höler all waiting in the wings.

Svensson on Freiburg

"[Under Schuster] They are a bit more dynamic and straightforward, and they have solutions in all phases of the game. However, they have also maintained the strength of set pieces, for example. Either way, they have acore of players who have been playing there for a long time and identify with the club."

Schuster on Union

"They are a real tight-knit unit. Last season was a difficult one for them, but they’re now back to how I’ve always known them. They defend with passion and their results reflect that. They keep things tight – creating chances against them is hard.”
