“Nantes played very well against Olympiacos and deservedly won,” said Streich. “They’re very good at football. They don’t have as many points in Ligue 1 as they would have liked. They have a technically good team.”

Freiburg will look to maintain their 100% start to this season’s Champions League following wins against Qarabag and Olympiacos.
