Poor in front of goal
Kleindienst registered five shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 4-3 defeat to SV 07 Elversberg.
Analysis: Kleindienst only put one of his five shots on the frame, and he created just one chance. In a high-scoring match, that type of inaccuracy can be detrimental. The forward has a good chance to score against Freiburg if he is more accurate, as the side did allow 57 goals in Bundesliga play a year ago.
Managing workload
Kleindienst had his workload reduced during Tuesday's training session after completing his first full match in more than 15 months against RB Leipzig, according to Rheinische Post.
Analysis: Kleindienst trained on the pitch for less than 30 minutes before continuing his work indoors, but coach Eugen Polanski clarified that the striker could have completed the entire session. The reduced workload was simply part of his fitness management after he played around 20-to-25 minutes longer than initially planned against Leipzig. There appears to be no injury concern ahead of Saturday's clash against Elversberg, though Gladbach will continue to carefully manage his workload as he works back toward peak fitness.
