7.50Tip and bets
St. Pauli's attack is often unconvincing and at times overly simplistic. Additionally, the players seem unable to maintain the pace set by their opponents. We don't believe the visitors can take points from an in-form Freiburg.
Our prediction is a Freiburg victory at odds of 1.64
Total Bet
In their last four matches, St. Pauli has scored only once. Freiburg effectively closes down their defensive zone, as seen in their recent game against Heidenheim. There is a high likelihood that the visitors will once again fail to find the back of the net.
The second bet is on St. Pauli's team total being under one goal at odds of 1.55.
First Half Bet
St. Pauli has managed to contain their opponents well in the first half. It’s no coincidence that in three of their last four matches, the score was 0-0 at halftime, and we might see the same scenario unfold today.
