Trabzonspor welcome Freiburg to Papara Park on 05.11.2026 with both sides sitting on six points after two rounds of the Conference League league phase. The Turkish side arrives on the back of six straight wins across all competitions, a run that includes a routine 2-0 result over Gaziantep. Freiburg come in having stumbled through a rough patch of three defeats before steadying themselves with back to back wins, most recently a 2-1 away win at Augsburg.
One detail worth flagging before kickoff: Freiburg have conceded five goals in their last two Conference League league phase matches despite winning their group opener, meaning their defense has looked shakier in Europe than at home in the Bundesliga. That gap between domestic form and continental form could matter a lot against a Trabzonspor attack that has found the net 14 times in its last five outings.
Keep an eye on Mohamed Salah for Trabzonspor, who has three goals and two assists in his last five appearances and tends to drift wide before cutting inside. On the Freiburg side, Igor Matanović has been their most direct threat with two goals and 14 shots across five games, and he looks like the player most capable of punishing Trabzonspor’s high defensive line.
Hot stat: Trabzonspor have scored in every single one of their last five matches and have not lost since mid-October, a run of six consecutive wins that dwarfs anything Freiburg have managed on the road this season.

Trabzonspor vs Freiburg prediction
We predict Trabzonspor to win this one, and we like the value on a narrow margin given how well Freiburg tend to create chances even when they lose. Trabzonspor’s six game winning streak was built largely at home, and their attack has been scoring at a rate Freiburg’s current defense will struggle to contain. Perhaps the smarter route is Trabzonspor win combined with both teams to score, since Freiburg have found the net in four of their last five matches regardless of the result.
Style wise, Trabzonspor commit fewer fouls (56 over their last five matches) than Freiburg (46, oddly lower actually, so this flips expectations a bit) and pick up fewer cards too, seven against Freiburg’s ten. Freiburg edge the corner count, 28 to 24, which points to a side that likes to work the ball wide and cross rather than play through the middle. With Trabzonspor’s directness up top and Freiburg’s tendency to concede set pieces, we expect a fairly open match with goals at both ends and a good number of corners.

Team Analysis
Trabzonspor’s recent run reads like a side peaking at the right time. Their last match, a 2-0 win over Gaziantep, followed a similar pattern to the four results before it: a composed defensive display paired with enough quality up top to settle things in the second half. In our preview of Trabzonspor vs Gaziantep we called a comfortable Trabzonspor win with a two-goal margin and BTTS No, and the 2-0 scoreline delivered on both counts even though the over 2.5 goals side of that call fell just short.
Freiburg’s last outing against Augsburg showed a team capable of grinding out a result even without its sharpest attacking form. The 2-1 win snapped a stretch where defensive lapses had crept in, and it came off the back of three straight defeats to Wolfsburg, Bayern Munich, and Monaco in various competitions. In our preview of FC Augsburg vs Freiburg we backed Freiburg to win with goals at both ends, and the 2-1 result matched that call almost perfectly.
Most recent Head-to-Head Matches
Trabzonspor and Freiburg have no recent competitive meetings on record. These two clubs rarely cross paths outside continental draws like this one, so there is little historical pattern to lean on beyond current form.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Trabzonspor the favourite
- Moneyline Trabzonspor 2.44 | Freiburg 2.60
- Draw 3.65
The market leans slightly toward Trabzonspor, which lines up with our own view given their home form and winning streak. The gap between the two sides isn’t huge though, with Freiburg’s price only marginally longer, and the draw odds sitting close enough to suggest bookmakers expect a tight, competitive match rather than a one-sided affair. We think the value sits with Trabzonspor on the win line, but we wouldn’t be shocked if Freiburg’s recent spell of three losses turns out to be an outlier rather than the norm.
Possible Starting Lineups
Trabzonspor possible starting eleven
- GK: André Onana
- DF: Wagner Pina, Samet Akaydin, Cenk Ozkacar, Chibuike Nwaiwu
- MF: Ozan Tufan, Tim Jabol-Folcarelli, Ernest Muci, Mohamed Salah, Noah Saviolo
- FW: Franculino Gluda Dju
Thomas Reis should stick with the 4-2-3-1 shape that has carried Trabzonspor through this winning run. Onana’s experience between the posts has been a steady presence, and the double pivot of Tufan and Jabol-Folcarelli gives the back four cover while Salah and Muci look to create from wide areas. Franculino Gluda Dju leads the line and has been the club’s most clinical finisher lately.
Freiburg possible starting eleven
- GK: Mio Backhaus
- DF: Matthias Ginter, Christian Günter, Lukas Kübler, Maximilian Rosenfelder
- MF: Maximilian Eggestein, Patrick Osterhage, Vincenzo Grifo, Jan-Niklas Beste, Cyriaque Irié
- FW: Igor Matanović
Julian Schuster tends to favor the same 4-2-3-1 setup, with Backhaus trusted in goal after a strong run of appearances. Eggestein and Osterhage shield the back line, while Grifo and Beste look to combine with Matanović, who remains Freiburg’s most dangerous threat in front of goal this season.

The Verdict
We’re backing Trabzonspor to edge this one, most likely by a single goal, with both sides finding the net. Trabzonspor’s defensive solidity combined with their scoring form gives them the edge at home, while Freiburg’s tendency to concede in Europe makes BTTS Yes an attractive add-on. Our punters team sees this as a competitive match rather than a blowout, and the 2-1 or 3-2 range feels like the most realistic outcome based on how both sides have performed over their last five fixtures.
