Full-time: Freiburg 0-0 Leipzig

Not an awful lot to say about this one really. Both defences were on top throughout and it was a game of minimal chances. The only real close call was when Gulácsi had to dive across to palm away Höler's header. Both keepers will be happy with their clean sheets; particularly Atubolu who set a new club record.

Good effort from Dōan

Günter and Grifo combine well down the left-hand side before the former finds Dōan on the edge of the box but he can't quite hit the target.

10 minutes to go

Can either side find a way through?

64'

Almost 1-0!

Höler comes so close to breaking the deadlock as his powerful header is tipped away fantastically by Gulácsi.

Still everything to play for

Both sides looking for the breakthrough.

Good build-up

xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).
Neither side has been able to create a clear opening as of yet.

Half-time

Half-time: Freiburg 0-0 Leipzig

Not too much to shout about in that half. The two defences have been very much on top, with any hint of a chance quickly being snuffed out. Atubolu has achieved a significant milestone, however, as he now holds the club record for the longest time without conceding.
45'

All a bit slow

The game is lacking a bit of fluidity as we approach half-time. There have been a lot of fouls and a lot of loose passes.
38'

Leipzig again can't quite break through

Lutsharel Geertruida darts into the box and pulls the ball across to Šeško but again the shot is immediately charged down.
33'

Half-chance

Willi Orbán gets on the end of a Xavi corner but his header goes over the bar.
31'

Penalty appeal

The Freiburg players appeal for a penalty as Baku makes contact with Ginter but nothing is given.

First clear sight of goal

Comfortable for Atubolu

Benjamin Šeško gets a little bit of space down the right but his shot is simple for Atubolu as he approaches that record.

Leipzig are gifted a soft corner and it almost results in the opener. The ball in finds El Chadaille Bitshiabu but his header rebounds away off Matthias Ginter.

Marco Rose on facing Freiburg

"We all know that playing in Freiburg is always difficult. SC are a really hard-working team. They have a clear structure, both with and without the ball. Their defence is really compact and committed, and their fans will get behind them too."

Julian Schuster on facing Leipzig

"They have really high aims in Leipzig. They have incredible quality and are always capable of winning matches. Their match against Mainz could have gone very differently. We have been warned, as we know about their strengths."

Leipzig surrendered a 1-0 lead in defeat to top-four rivals Mainz last time out. Die Roten Bullen had booked their place in the DFB Cup semi-finals with victory over Wolfsburg days earlier, but are now winless in three in the league whilst taking maximum points in just one of their last eight.
