Borussia Dortmund opened its Bundesliga campaign with a 1-0 win at home against Bayer Leverkusen last weekend. Now, the Black and Yellows'hit the road Friday for a difficult match at Freiburg.

The hosts also won their opening match against bottom-of-the-table Augsburg in a 4-0 road shutout despite producing just 1.2 expected goals in the victory. That game continued the trend from last season for Freiburg, which greatly outperformed its xG numbers and ran unsustainably well on set pieces.

These sides met last season in the second week of the Bundesliga campaign, which resulted in a stunning 2-1 upset by Freiburg that was largely driven by finishing variance. Dortmund showed as much in the second meeting when the Black and Yellows cruised to a 5-1 victory and controlled the chances created once again.

Freiburg's sixth-place finish has it getting a lot of market respect, but I'm not buying into it being repeatable in the 2022-23 campaign.
