SV Sandhausen vs SC Freiburg Prediction :
Only two of Sand hausen’s last seven competitive games have been won, and they have lost three of their last four. They may struggle at home, where they have lost their last three games. Freiburg, on the other hand,
has only won one of their last four games and will attempt to get back on track this weekend. The visitors should win because of the stark difference in class and quality between the two teams.

SV Sandhausen vs SC Freiburg Team news :
Kemal Ademi, the forward for Sandhausen, is unlikely to return due to an ankle injury that could keep him out for a few more weeks. Bashkim Ajdini received his fifth caution of the season on Friday against SV Darmstadt 98, but the defender will only be suspended for one league match.
Roland Sallai returned to Freiburg’s matchday squad against Dortmund, making an appearance off the bench in the second half after recovering from a muscle injury. He will almost certainly start in Sandhausen to get into shape for a crucial match ahead of a busy time for his team.
Because Sildillia’s suspension will only be in effect for the Bundesliga, the full-back probably won’t play in Saturday’s home game against Stuttgart, which is a rival team in the area.
