Patrick Osterhage - Not available Saturday Osterhage (strain) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Union Berlin.

Impact Osterhage has not been included in the squad for Saturday's match as he continues to recover from a muscular injury. He has started in all six of his appearances across all competitions this season. His next opportunity to return will come against Nice on Thursday in the Europa League.

Impact Osterhage will be a game-time call for this matchup, and if fit, the midfielder would return from a three-game absence due to a muscular issue. Osterhage has started in his six appearances in all competitions when fit.

Eren Dinkci - Close call for Saturday Dinkci (undisclosed) will be a late call for Saturday's game against Union Berlin, manager Julian Schuster told media during Friday's pre-match press conference. "We have a couple...

Impact Dinkci didn't play against Leverkusen the last time out, and the forward will reportedly be a late call for Saturday's matchup. He's started in just three of his seven league appearances, so even if he's fit, he won't have a big impact in most fantasy formats.

Matthias Ginter - Creates three chances Ginter created three chances, blocked a shot, made an interception, a tackle and four clearances during Sunday's 2-0 loss to Leverkusen.

Impact Ginter was active on both sides of the ball leading Freiburg in chances created and clearances during the loss. The defender has combined for three tackles and 15 clearances over his last three Bundesliga appearances.

Noah Atubolu - Concedes in each half Atubolu allowed two goals while making two saves during Sunday's 2-0 loss to Leverkusen.

Impact Atubolu allowed a goal in each half as Freiburg dropped all three points Sunday. The keeper has allowed four goals while combining for five saves and keeping a clean sheet over his last three starts. Freiburg travel to Union Berlin next Saturday.

Philipp Lienhart - Two yellows Sunday Lienhart was sent off in the 74th minute of Sunday's 2-0 loss to Frieburg due to a second yellow card.

Impact Lienhart would receive his marching orders in the second half of Sunday's outing, as the defender was shown a second yellow, leading to a red card. This will suspdned him for their next match against Union Berlin on Nov. 1, returning to face St. Pauli on Nov. 9. He is a regular starter, so this will force a change, with Anthony Jung as a possible replacement.

OCTOBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Patrick Osterhage - Still sidelined Osterhage (strain) is out for Sunday's match against Leverkusen.

Impact Osterhage is not in the call Sunday as he continues to deal with a strain, his third straight game on the sidelines due to the injury. This is a rough spell for the midfielder, as he started in all six appearances when fit. It is unknown if he will return in the three remaining matches before the international break, leaving his availability moving forward up in the air.

OCTOBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Florian Muller - Returns to bench Muller (strain) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Leverkusen.

Impact Muller was out with a strain last outing but is already back with his team, fit enough to return to the bench. He is only their backup keeper and should remain in a bench role moving forward, having yet to see the field this season.

OCTOBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Jan-Niklas Beste - Bench option Beste (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Leverkusen.

Impact Beste was forced off the field early in the last outing as a precaution and has made his return to the team sheet as expected, with the attacker earning a spot on the bench. He had started in all but two games leading up to Sunday's contest, so he will hope to test his legs and return to the starting XI next outing.

Jan-Niklas Beste - Forced off as precaution Beste (undisclosed) was forced off injured in the 52nd minute of Thursday's 2-0 win against Utrecht as a precaution, coach Julian Schuster said in a press conference. "It was also...

Impact Beste suffered a minor issue in training on Wednesday and was initially expected to play only one half in Thursday's clash against Utrecht. The forward felt something in the 52nd minute and was forced off as a precaution. The issue appears to be minor, as the coach remains optimistic about his chances to feature on Sunday against Leverkusen. That said, if he were to miss the game or start on the bench, Eren Dinkci would be the likely option to replace him for the club of the Black Forest.

OCTOBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Florian Muller - Out with strain Muller is out for Thursday's match against Utrecht due to a muscle injury, according to his club.

Impact Muller will hit the sidelines for at least a match or two, as the goalie is suffering from a strain. This will be something to monitor but also a minor loss for the club, as he has yet to appear this season and is their backup option in net. He will then likely return to a bench role once deemed fit again.

Patrick Osterhage - Suffering from injury Osterhage is out for Thursday's match against Utrecht due to a muscle injury, according to his club.

Impact Osterhage will be sidelined heading into UEL play Thursday, as the midfielder has suffered a muscle injury. This is a tough loss for the club, as he is a regular starter, starting in all six games he has been available for this season. This will then force a change, with Johan Manzambi likely taking a more defensive role while Lucas Holer or Eren Dinicki likely to start in Manzambi's attacking midfielder role.

OCTOBER 19, 2025 • YOUTUBE

Jan-Niklas Beste - Quantity and quality with crosses Beste had 10 crosses (four accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Beste updated his season high in crosses by reaching double digits in the category for the first time this campaign. If his last three Bundesliga appearances are any indication, quality is not a problem with the attacking midfielder, whose 18 attempts include seven accurate. Despite no assists, Beste has been creating chances at an adequate rate, with two per game.

Johan Manzambi - Back in form with assist Manzambi assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Eintracht Frankfurt. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 63r...

Impact After three consecutive starts, Manzambi was suspended for two games because of a red-card offense. Post-suspension, his first appearance saw him play an uninspiring half off the bench. Manzambi's latest appearance marked his first start post-suspension, and his form has quickly skyrocketed with an assist to a goal Derry Scherhant scored two minutes into SC Freiburg's latest game.

OCTOBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Vincenzo Grifo - Scores off bench Grifo scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Grifo's reserve appearance marked his first for the 2025-26 Bundesliga. Perhaps the brief demotion is exactly what was needed to refresh his form, as he got back to goal-scoring ways by getting goal No. 3 this season. With four G/A in seven appearances (six starts) for the campaign, Grifo is delivering what is expected of him for SC Freiburg.

Noah Atubolu - Two goals conceded, one save Atubolu made one save and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact For the first time since Aug. 31, Atubolu has conceded multiple goals in a Bundesliga game. Unlike his previous three appearances, in which he conceded fewer than two goals and logged more saves, he saved only one shot against Eintracht Frankfurt. In the Bundesliga, up next for SC Freiburg is an Oct. 26 game at Bayer Leverkusen.

Noah Atubolu - Appears to be option Atubolu (knee) is back in team training and appears to be an option for Sunday's match against Frankfurt, according to his club.

Impact Atubolu made his way back to team training this week and appears to be back in the fold, with the goalie set to take the field Sunday. He should immediately return to his starting role, as he has started in every match this season, recording two clean sheets, 11 goals allowed and 23 saves in eight appearances this season.

OCTOBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Noah Atubolu - Pictured in training Atubolu (knee) was back in training Wednesday ahead of Sunday's match against Frankfurt, according to his club.

Impact Atubolu went down with a knee knock during the break in training but is already appearing to be on the mend, as the goalie took to the training field with the rest of his team Wednesday. This should leave him in a decent spot for Sunday's contest, likely to feature if no setbacks occur. He still has yet to miss a start this season and should continue in that role if fit to face Frankfurt.

OCTOBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Noah Atubolu - Suffers knee knock Atubolu is ruled out for the rest of the international break due to a knee knock he sustained in training, according to Sky Sports.

Impact Atubolu will miss the remaining time with the DFB since he won't travel to Belfast as a precaution to recover in time for the clash against Frankfurt on Sunday. He will likely undergo further examinations with his club once back in Freiburg to determine if he has to miss some time or if he could be part of the match squad against the Eagles. If he had to miss some time, Florian Muller is expected to replace him between the posts.

Lukas Kubler - Starts in friendly Kubler (undisclosed) is in the starting squad of Thursday's friendly game against Karlsruher SC.

Impact Kubler was questionable for the game against Gladbach and ultimately missed the match. The defender had been dealing with an undisclosed injury but appears back to full fitness as he is in the starting squad for Thursday's friendly against Karlsruher SC. This is good news for Freiburg, as it suggests he will be fully fit for the next Bundesliga game against Frankfurt on Oct. 19 and could reclaim his starting role at right-back.

OCTOBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Matthias Ginter - Plays full game Ginter registered one cross (zero accurate) and six clearances in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Monchengladbach.
