OGC Nice vs Freiburg Prediction and Betting Tips | November 6th 2025

The UEFA Europa League returns with a fresh set of fixtures as OGC Nice and Freiburg square off at the Allianz Riviera Stadium on Thursday. While Julian Schuster’s men could move top of the table here, the French outfit will be looking to secure their first win of the campaign.

OGC Nice were left spitting feathers last Saturday when they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Paris Saint-Germain after conceding the winner in the 94th minute.

Before that, Franck Haise’s side were on a three-game winning streak in Ligue 1 and unbeaten in their previous five league matches (3W 2D), scoring 10 goals and conceding six in that time.

Nice, who are currently eighth in the Ligue 1 table, now turn their attention to the Europa League, where they have endured a difficult campaign so far, suffering defeats against Roma, Fenerbahce and Celta Vigo in their three matches so far.

On the other hand, Freiburg played out a goalless draw with Union Berlin when the two sides squared off at the An der alten Forsterei in the German Bundesliga last Saturday.

Before that, Schuster’s men saw their nine-game unbeaten run come to an end in a 2-0 loss against Bayer Leverkusen on October 26, three days before bouncing back in a 3-1 victory over Fortuna Dusseldorf in the DFB Pokal second round.

Freiburg now turn their focus to the Europa League, where they have picked up two wins from their three matches so far, seeing off Basel and Utrecht, with a 1-1 draw against Bologna on October 2 sandwiched between the two victories.
