Will the Black Forest women get back on track?

After a very strong start to the season with only one defeat in their first six league games (four wins, one draw), which was to be expected against league leaders Bayern Munich, SC Freiburg have recently collapsed completely. The Breisgau women suffered three defeats in a row, scoring five goals of their own during this period but conceding an impressive nine. Against this backdrop, our tip for Freiburg vs. Leverkusen Women is to back the visitors from the Rhineland. After all, Leverkusen are the second-best away team in the Women’s Bundesliga with ten out of a possible 15 points.

But momentum is also on the side of the Black and Reds. Leverkusen won their last two league games against Carl Zeiss Jena (4-2) and Hamburg (2-1) by clear margins and also have the upper hand in direct comparisons with SC Freiburg. Fourteen of the 29 encounters have gone to the Rhinelanders, who are currently unbeaten in five competitive games against the Black Forest team (four wins, one draw) and just last season took all six points against the Sport-Club. Accordingly, we find the best balance between risk, probability of occurrence, and potential winnings in tip 2.

Of course, there is always a certain amount of risk involved in the three-way system. Those who are not prepared to take this risk can alternatively bet on it being a high-scoring match at Freiburg’s Dreisamstadion. After all, both teams are not only strong in attack—SCF has already scored 19 goals in nine games, Bayer 04 17—but also have plenty of room for improvement in defense. The Werkself has conceded 15 goals, while Sport-Club has conceded 18—an average of two per game.

Freiburg – Leverkusen Women Head-to-head comparison / H2H record

Head to head: 10 – 5 – 14

A total of 29 matches have been played between the women’s teams of SC Freiburg and Bayer 04 Leverkusen so far, with the Rhinelanders leading the head-to-head record with 14 wins. This is mainly due to the fact that the Werkself have not lost any of their last five competitive games against the team from Breisgau (four wins, one draw) and just last season managed to take all six points against the Black Forest team.

Freiburg – Leverkusen Women Tip

All in all, our prediction for Freiburg vs. Leverkusen Women is an away win for the Werkself, who have won their last two league games and already took all six points against the women from Breisgau last season. The Sport-Club is currently going through a slump and has lost its last three Bundesliga games. With Bayer 04, the second-best away team in the Women’s Bundesliga is now coming to the Dreisamstadion. There is therefore little to suggest that the Black Forest women will be able to turn things around in this game of all games. We are therefore betting on an away win for the Black and Reds in the three-way system.
