Matthias Ginter and Maximilian Eggestein will most likely start in the last three games of the year. Coach Julian Schuster is not planning any deliberate breaks for the two long-running favorites – despite their heavy workload since the start of the season.
The SC Freiburg coach explained that he had “a good feeling” that both of them could complete the remaining weeks before Christmas. Although they keep a close eye on the physical and mental demands, Ginter and Eggestein handled the stress “very well”. In addition, their consistently strong performances are an argument for continuing to field them from the start.
Both have been in the starting line-up in every competitive game this season – although Ginter has not missed a minute of play so far. That is unlikely to change until the winter break.
