The Bianconeri were held to a 1-1 draw at the Allianz Arena in Turin in the first leg by Nantes in the playoff round, but a hat-trick by Angel Di Maria in the second leg ensured a last-16 berth for Massimiliano Allegri's men.
However, they head into this fixture on the back of a 1-0 defeat to AS Roma in Serie A, courtesy of a screamer from Gianluca Mancini, and should be hungry to get back to winning ways.
Meanwhile, Freiburg have enjoyed a sensational run in Europe so far as they remained undefeated in the group stage, winning four of the six matches.
They are currently fifth in the Bundesliga rankings and are just two points shy of third-placed Union Berlin. The Black Forest club will now look to stage an upset at continental level when they travel to Turin to lock horns against the Serie A giants.
