As the UEFA Europa League (UEL) league phase heats up, Nice find themselves in dangerous waters—pointless after three rounds and severely lacking confidence. Their visitors, Freiburg, have soared in contrast, arriving in France unbeaten and just a whisker away from booking a spot in the knockout play-offs.
For Kenyan football fans and bettors, this clash presents another thrilling night of European football and a perfect opportunity to capitalize on informed predictions.
🔥 Match News and Current Form
Nice: Under Pressure and Running Out of Time
Nice is enduring a nightmare start to their UEL campaign.
Three straight 2-1 defeats leave them hovering near the bottom of the table, and their recent 1–0 loss to PSG adds to a worrying trend—
✅ 5 defeats in their last 10 matches (W3, D2).
✅ Winless in 13 major European games (D4, L9).
However, their home form offers a flicker of hope:
✅ 4 wins in their last six home games (D1, L1).
✅ They haven’t trailed at half-time in 11 straight home fixtures, signaling strong early-game resilience.
Injuries are piling up, too, with Sofiane Diop the latest casualty.
Freiburg: Confident, Composed, and Hard to Beat
Julian Schuster’s Freiburg enters matchday four in impressive form:
✅ Unbeaten in their first three UEL matches (W2, D1).
✅ Only seven teams share that record so far.
Their away form is mixed, however:
➡️ Just one win in their last five away matches (D3, L1).
➡️ Their last two UEL defeats were also away from home.
Still, their European pedigree in recent years—just two losses in their last 11 UEL outings—gives them a psychological edge.
📊 Head-to-Head and Historical Insight
This will be the first-ever meeting between Nice and Freiburg.
But history leans toward the Germans:
✅ Freiburg are unbeaten in four matches vs French teams
❌ Nice have failed to win their last nine games against German opposition
With the trends showing German superiority in these matchups, Freiburg will feel confident despite being away from home.
🔥 Hot Stats and Betting Trends
- ✅ 10 of Nice’s last 12 goals were scored before half-time
- ✅ Nice have not trailed at half-time in their last 11 home matches
- ✅ Only 2 of Freiburg’s last eight matches saw over 2.5 goals
- ✅ The HT result = FT result in 7 of Freiburg’s last eight away games
Key takeaway for bettors:
Early goals matter for Nice. Freiburg games tend to be low-scoring and predictable in outcome, based on the first half.
