Freiburg’s recent victories suggest they won’t be pushovers, especially with Lucas Höler in fine form. However, Dortmund’s home advantage and attacking depth might just tip the scales in their favour. Expect a game of fine margins, with both sides having their moments.Freiburg’s recent victories suggest they won’t be pushovers, especially with Lucas Höler in fine form.
