Match Facts
This will be the first ever competitive meeting between Freiburg and West Ham, and the German side’s first ever European clash with an English club, the 12th nation Freiburg have faced a side from in UEFA competition.
West Ham have lost their last three visits to German sides in European competition, once to Borussia Dortmund (1-3 in April 1966) and twice to Eintracht Frankfurt (1-2 in March 1976, 0-1 in May 2022).
Freiburg are unbeaten in all seven of their UEFA Europa League group stage games since the start of last season (W5 D2), with their last such loss a 0-2 defeat at home to Sevilla in December 2013.
Since the start of last season, West Ham have won 15 of their 16 games in European competition (D1), while they have won five of their seven group stage games in the UEFA Europa League overall (D1 L1).
No player created more chances (7) or provided more assists (2) on MD1 of this season’s UEFA Europa League than West Ham’s James Ward-Prowse. Indeed, the only English player ever to create more chances in a single match in the competition was Mason Mount for Vitesse v Lazio in November 2017 (8).
