The pair met twice last season, with Die Borussen emerging victorious on both occasions. A trip to the Black Forest last October saw Dortmund run out 2-0 winners, whilst the return visit in Dortmund saw the home side claim a 5-1 win, striker Robert Lewandowski netting twice. Freiburg's previous two visits to the Westfalenstadion also witnessed handsome home wins, with BVB emerging as 4-0 winners in 2011-12 and 3-0 victors in 2010-11.
Borussia Dortmund vs. Freiburg: Date, Time, Live Stream, TV Info and PreviewMartin Rose/Getty ImagesA difficult ten days have seen Borussia Dortmund give up their unbeaten start to the season, drop points in the league for the first time and struggle to break down lower division opposition on the German Cup. Jurgen Klopp's men now return to the Westfalenstadion where they have so far proven infallible this campaign, and where their last outing saw them fire six past Hamburg. Facing them will be last season's Bundesliga surprise package, SC Freiburg, who finished in fifth position and were merely a last day defeat to Schalke away from a spot in the Champions League qualifiers. However, this term has been rather more difficult for manager Christian Streich, his side having failed to win in their opening six matches and languishing in 17th position.

The 27-year-old midfield destroyer made the move to the Bundesliga and Christian Streich's side during the summer and the 44-cap Swiss international has already gone on to make himself an integral part of the Brazilians of Breisgau, playing every minute of every Bundesliga game thus far this season, having arrived for a mere £350, 000 from Sporting Lisbon.
