It will be an emotional afternoon for the hosts: The Dreisamstadion will be played for the last time in Freiburg, and the SC will be playing in the new arena from next weekend. “I’m looking forward to the new stadium, but I already miss the old one,” said coach Christian Streich, looking at the move. To say goodbye to the long-standing venue, the Freiburg team are hoping for the third win of the season for the SC among the 14,500 spectators.
