Freiburg's Europa League High vs. Bundesliga Woes
19 Apr
Summary
- Freiburg advanced to Europa League semi-finals with a 6-1 aggregate win.
- Heidenheim secured their first win in 15 matches against Union Berlin.
- Freiburg sits eighth in the Bundesliga, while Heidenheim is last.
Freiburg returns to Bundesliga action on Sunday, hosting Heidenheim at the Europa Park Stadion. This match follows Freiburg's impressive 6-1 aggregate victory over Celta Vigo in their Europa League quarter-final, securing a spot in the semi-finals. Despite continental success, Freiburg's domestic form has been inconsistent, with only one win in their last six league games since early March. They currently occupy eighth place in the league standings.
In contrast, Heidenheim achieved a significant 3-1 win against Union Berlin last Saturday, marking their first victory of the year after a 15-match winless streak. This result offers a glimmer of hope for their survival efforts. However, Heidenheim remains at the bottom of the Bundesliga table, seven points adrift of safety. Freiburg has a strong home record, remaining unbeaten in 18 of their last 20 matches across all competitions since August 2025, while Heidenheim possesses the league's worst away record.
