Leverkusen vs Freiburg pre-match preview

Leverkusen (4th, 13 pts) host Freiburg (3rd, 13 pts) in the Bundesliga. Leverkusen have taken 10 points from their last 5 games (WWDWL) and Freiburg 13 points from 5 (WDWWW). Leverkusen: over 1.5 goals in each of their last 11 league games.

Our model makes Leverkusen clear favourites at 59%, with Freiburg at 20%. Expected goals are 2.15 for Leverkusen and 1.21 for Freiburg, and the most likely score is 2-1 (10%).

Over 2.5 goals is 65%, below the Bundesliga rate of 74%, so the model expects fewer goals than a typical Bundesliga match. In their last 4 meetings, Leverkusen won 2, Freiburg didn't win any and 2 ended level; 3 had over 2.5 goals.

Over 2.5 goals is the model's clearest call at 65%, which still fails about 3 times in 10.
