As Bayer Leverkusen prepares to face SC Freiburg, the stage is set for a tightly contested encounter. While Leverkusen has averaged 2.4 goals at home in their last five outings, they’ve also exhibited a stout defense, conceding just 0.8 goals per match. Freiburg, on the other hand, has struggled to find the net against stronger opponents, which bodes well for a low-scoring affair. Leverkusen's recent form shows a tendency towards control and tactical discipline; they've only managed an average of 1.2 goals against in their last five games. With their expected goals (xG) figures reflecting a similar narrative, the likelihood of both teams exceeding the 3.5 total seems slim.
