Do we know when the team are flying out?  Is it the day before like a usual away game or they going today/tomorrow?

I’d heard tomorrow afternoon, but no idea how true it is.

They’ve got some very good players, particularly Manzambi, who’s basically their Rogers. I also think Matanović will score because, since the turn of the year, he’s been in good form and tends to score in patterns of three — he’s currently on a two-game streak.

I can see this being a high-scoring match, with the winners (hopefully us) winning by the odd goal.

I'm expecting a tough game, they'll be no easy pushovers. The more I hear about them, the more I hope Unai has done his full preparation and the players realise they're in for a real battle. We'll need another Forest type performance and our attacking players to be clinical.

If you can put up with Luke Robinson, he has a guest journalist on UTV podcast giving the inside on Freiburg. Well worth a watch.
