Leverkusen are set to host Freiburg at the BayArena inn their closing fixture of the 2021/22 Bundesliga campaign on Saturday evening with kickoff at 16:30.
Leverkusen have done well this season with the side claiming 18 victories from their 33 matches and they enter the last match having already claimed the third place finish. That means that Leverkusen like most of the Bundesliga sides head into their final day of this season with only their pride to fight for.
They have won their last three league matches including the 4-2 thriller at Hoffenheim last time out, and they should be confident of claiming another win on Saturday to end their season on a high note.
Meanwhile Freiburg have also bunched above their weight this season in the Bundesliga with the side managing to record 55 points from their 33 games so far, and they sit fifth just two points behind RB Leipzig in the Fourth place.
Freiburg head into the match with everything to fight for, as they sit just a point above Union Berlin and three above seventh-placed Koln with just one game to go. Therefore a slip-up here could see them finish seventh and thus will enter Saturday’s clash all guns blazing.
Freiburg have not lost to Leverkusen in their last three encounters claiming two victories in the run including a 2-1 win that came in the reverse fixture earlier this season. They should be confident of extending that run on Saturday especially that Leverkusen have nothing to fight for.
