The top facts before the game in Freiburg
On Saturday, FC Augsburg will be visiting the Europa-Park stadium for the first time. In the duel with sixth-placed Freiburg, FCA want to improve their record against the sports club. The top facts before the game presented by Grünbeck.
balance sheet: The Fuggerstadt team were only able to win the Bundesliga away from home in Breisgau once – in 2014 when they won 4-2. The last four matches went to Freiburg, including the first leg in the WWK ARENA (0:4).
Restart: In the first two games of the new year, however, SC only got one point (0:6 in Wolfsburg, 1:1 against Frankfurt). FCA ended a run of eight games without a win with a 1-0 win over Gladbach and kept a clean sheet for the second time this season.
The important 1:0: Mergim Berisha’s goal against Mönchengladbach gave FCA a 1-0 lead for the fourth time, resulting in a total of seven points. Only Bremen’s Niclas Füllkrug scored the first goal of the game more often.
returnees: Ermedin Demirović returns to his old place of work (from 2020 to 2022 in Freiburg) on Saturday. The 24-year-old attacker is FCA’s top scorer with six goals and has prepared four more goals.
goodbye: There is a reunion with Michael Gregoritsch, who moved from Augsburg to Freiburg before the season. The Austrian, who played 129 competitive games for FCA, also has six goals this season.
duels: While the Red-Green-Whites have the most duels in the league (210 per game), Freiburg contests the fewest duels (174 per game).
Just a corner goal: After 17 games, both teams have only conceded one goal from a corner – the best in the league.
