Freiburg vs Lens Match Preview
On February 22, SC Freiburg and Lens will square off at the Europa-Park-Stadion stadium in Freiburg, Germany in a knockout round encounter for the UEFA Europa League. This article contains the best soccer analysis about this coming encounter.
Freiburg Analysis: Looking to break streak
They have advanced past the group stage for the second straight season after an outstanding, undefeated group campaign that ended in a loss to Juventus in the round of 16 of last season. Due to that, Freiburg was unable to go past the preliminary round. However, in order to advance to the round of 16, Freiburg needs to break their 23-year streak of consecutive continental knockout victories, with St. Gallen of Switzerland being the last team they defeated in a two-leg match. Freiburg’s group stage performance was quite remarkable; primarily because of their decisive 5-0 home victories against Olympiacos and TSC Backa Topola, they finished second only to West Ham United.
Lens Analysis: In the top 6 domestically
Despite only finishing 3rd and missing out on the Europa League, Lens made it an unforgettable group stage for the supporters in their first season back in Europe since 2007–08. Despite Arsenal’s crushing of Franck Haise’s team at the Emirates, victories at home against the Gunners and Sevilla produced joyous scenes at the Bollaert-Delelis as they went undefeated through the group stage. Lens is also in fantastic form as European competition resumes; they have won three straight to climb into the top 6. Lens, who started the season with just 1 point from their first 5 games and was in the bottom 3, are now only 4 points behind Nice in 2nd place, and they have a legitimate chance to compete in the Champions League once more.
