The Bundesliga returns this weekend and will see Freiburg host Wolfsburg at the Europa-Park Stadion on Saturday afternoon.

Freiburg have hit a good patch of form lately after an inconsistent start to the year. They held on for a 1-1 draw against high-flying RB Leipzig last time out and would have picked up all three points if not for a late equalizer from their opponents.

The home team sit sixth in the Bundesliga table with 41 points from 25 games. They will be looking to return to winning ways this weekend as they continue their pursuit of Champions League football.

Wolfsburg beat Union Berlin 1-0 in their last game via a first-half own goal from their opponents. The Wolves did not offer much offensively in the second half but dug deep defensively to pick up a much-needed three points.

Wolfsburg now sit 12th in the league table with 31 points from 25 games. They will be looking to build on their latest result when they play this weekend as they continue their ascent up the table.

Freiburg are on a five-game unbeaten run across all competitions and have lost just one of their last eight. They are undefeated in their last four home games and will be looking to maximize their home advantage at the weekend.

Wolfsburg are only just returning to form, winning three of their last five games. However, the trip to Freiburg may prove a test too tough for the visitors.
