Trabzonspor to host Freiburg

Trabzonspor will host Germany's Freiburg in the UEFA Conference League at their home ground. The claret and blues, unbeaten in Europe so far, want to continue their winning run in front of their fans. Thomas Reis's side have beaten KuPS Kuopio 4-2 and Hearts 2-0 in their first two matches of the tournament. Trabzonspor have taken 6 points from the last two weeks in the Conference League and will be looking for points again in this match.

The two teams have met only once before. In the 2006 meeting, Trabzonspor won 1-0. This will be the 11th time the club has appeared in the Conference League, with this match against Freiburg. From their 10 matches so far, Trabzonspor have won 3, drawn 4 and lost 3, scoring 13 goals and conceding 14.

In European competition, Trabzonspor have played 6 matches against German clubs Kaiserslautern, Schalke 04 and Bochum, winning 1, drawing 1 and losing 4. Their only win in those matches came in 1997, when they beat Bochum 2-1 at home.

The match will be broadcast live and free-to-air on TRT 1 on Thursday, 5 November at 20:45. All eyes will be on Muhammed Salah.
