Freiburg could not have dreamt of a better start to the 2026/27 season.
After reaching the Europa League final back in May, Die Breisgauer have continued to shift through the gears, and are now on an impressive unbeaten run stretching to that night in Istanbul.
Dropping points just once in the league, when they drew 2-2 with Eintracht Frankfurt, Julian Schuster's side sit top of the Bundesliga on 13 points, while only Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig have scored more than their 14.
Now, they are looking to carry this form into European competition, and will most definitely fancy their chances of a late run given their exploits in the Europa League last term.
Opponents Jablonec sit sixth in the Czech standings, and beat Dukla Praha 3-1 over the weekend.
Team news and predicted lineups
Heading into Thursday, Schuster remains without both Florent Muslija and Rihito Yamamoto, though he will be happy to continue with his main starters available.
With Derry Scherhant starting well this season, the clash may give icon Vincenzo Grifo a chance to start out wide, after starring in Europe last term.
Visitors Jablonec are without Kevin-Prinve Milla, Klemen Mihelak and Jan Suchan.
