A Sports Betting Pick by Niko
Football; Germany: Bundesliga
Europa-Park Stadion - Freiburg

SC Freiburg
SC Freiburg's unbeaten run ended with a 2-1 defeat at Bayer Leverkusen, but their start to the season remains impressive. They have collected 13 points from six Bundesliga games and scored 15 goals, with only six conceded.
Julian Schuster's side have looked capable of competing with the strongest teams, and home advantage gives them a chance to make Bayern Munich work for the result.
The schedule is a concern, as SC Freiburg travel to Monaco in the UEFA Conference League on Thursday. Bayern Munich also have a midweek European fixture against Arsenal, though, so SC Freiburg are not alone in dealing with a short turnaround.
Florent Muslija is listed as unavailable with a knee injury; no other SC Freiburg absences or doubts are currently listed, but some changes and rotations are possible after the European game.
Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich remain the team to beat, with 22 goals scored and only five conceded in their first six Bundesliga matches.
Their 6-1 win over RB Leipzig showed their attacking power again, but they have also drawn games against Augsburg and had to settle for a 3-3 draw with Viking in the UEFA Champions League. They are dangerous, but not immune to being dragged into a difficult match.
Bayern Munich host Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, giving them one more day of recovery than SC Freiburg. Whether that helps is questionable.
Jamal Musiala remains out with a hamstring injury, but check for other possible changes closer to kick-off. Harry Kane and the rest of Bayern Munich's attack still make them favorites, but this is a demanding week with little room to relax.
The Betting Verdict
I think SC Freiburg are underestimated here. They are one of the best German sides, yet money is pouring in on Bayern Munich to win.
I find it hard to back Bayern Munich lately as they are going hot and cold, and obviously, this period isn't ideal for them. They still hammer sides, but they also slip up more compared to previous seasons.
I like SC Freiburg on the double chance at around 3.10. SC Freiburg have been strong at home, winning all 3 matches with an 11:2 goal difference. They also have the quality to trouble the Bavarians, who had a challenging midweek match against Arsenal.
Bayern Munich are rightly the favorites, but this price gives me enough reason to back SC Freiburg to avoid defeat rather than take the short away win.
