Freiburg were involved in a six-goal thriller last time out, as it finished 3-3 against Bayer Leverkusen.
Freiburg currently sit outside of the European spots in eighth, which is largely due to their poor away form - the German side have won just two of their 13 league matches, with 27 goals conceded in that time. Freiburg have been more convincing in the Europa League, and they finished seventh in the league phase to secure automatic progression to the round of 16.
Genk’s run was a bit more turbulent, but they were able to edge past Dinamo Zagreb in the playoff round. Despite taking a 3-1 lead from the first leg, Dinamo Zagreb were able to level the scores in the second leg and take the tie to extra time.
The visitors seemed to run out of steam for the additional period, and Genk were able to capitalise with two goals. Neither side have been particularly convincing at the back this season, which makes goals a target.
