Nice are showing solid performances in Ligue 1, especially in home matches, where they score consistently. The French team plays attacking football, but their defense occasionally makes mistakes, especially in European competition, where they have only lost one game so far.
Freiburg have been inconsistent in the Bundesliga, but they are transforming in European competition. The Germans have demonstrated reliable attacking play, scoring in most away matches.
Given the attacking potential of both teams and their motivation in the Europa League, a goal-scoring contest is most likely.
