Odds as of October 1 at DraftKings
Hertha Berlin vs Freiburg Prediction
High-flying Freiburg has made its best-ever start to a Bundesliga campaign and is hopeful of collecting three points away at struggling Hertha Berlin on Saturday in Bundesliga Matchday 7.
In fifth place, Freiburg is unbeaten in six games so far.
Meanwhile, Hertha is in the 12th spot after two wins and four defeats. And it is in recovery after a 6-0 hammering away against Red Bull Leipzig last weekend.
In view of this, the oddsmakers at DraftKings make Freiburg the favorite for a road trip win at +155, an attractive offer given their form.
Furthermore, Hertha is priced at +190 with the draw also compelling at +225. The kick-off is at 9:30 am ET.
Coach Christian Streich has, in particular, built a solid defensive base for his Freiburg team with only four Bundesliga goals conceded so far – against nine scored.
Hertha was a 3-0 home winner when it last met Freiburg last May.
But Hertha has struggled so far – losing its opening three games.
A mini-recovery followed with two straight wins. However, that was wiped out by the six-goal thrashing by Leipzig.
To sum up, Freiburg is ready to seize its chance to make an impact this season and could well win in the capital this time around.
Pick: Freiburg +155
Mainz vs Union Berlin Prediction
Union has drawn three of its fixtures so far and could claim another point away at Mainz on Sunday in Bundesliga Matchday 7.
Mainz is in the sixth spot after a solid opening to the season. Union, however, is only two spots below in eighth – only one point behind.
At DraftKings, the draw is rated at a decent +225 with kick-off at 9:30 am. Furthermore, Mainz is a favorite for a home win at +110 with Union at +280.
There was a 1-0 defeat for Mainz at Bayer Leverkusen last weekend.
It is, however, unbeaten at home – although that record is not overly impressive despite a 1-0 win at its HQ against Red Bull Leipzig on opening day.
Subsequently, there was a 3-0 win at home against strugglers Greuther Furth and a 0-0 draw with Freiburg.
Monchengladbach, meanwhile, is in 12th place with only seven points. Its form picked up, however with a 1-0 defeat of Borussia Dortmund last time out – giving it a record of two wins, one draw and three defeats.
After four straight wins, Wolfsburg was held to a 1-1 draw by Eintracht Frankfurt – before the Hoffenheim defeat.
So, in conclusion, it will be looking to get back to winning ways this weekend.
There was a 0-0 draw when these teams last met at Wolfsburg in February.
Pick: Wolfsburg +120
