Involved in six goals in the last six competitive matches, recently scoring twice in a row: Michael Gregoritsch is demonstrating his goalscoring qualities in Freiburg kit and could reach the quarter-finals of the Europa League for the first time with the Breisgauers on Thursday. The 29-year-old ÖFB team player knows several reasons for his current run of success.

The question of Freiburg's man of the moment can be answered quickly at the moment. Last Thursday, Michael Gregoritsch scored in the first leg of the Europa League round of 16 tie against West Ham to secure a 1-0 win, and three days later the Styrian was once again the match-winner: in Bochum, the 29-year-old headed home the winner shortly after the break to secure a 2-0 win in a 2-1 victory and the first three-pointer for the Breisgau side after six consecutive Bundesliga matches without a win.
