Eintracht Frankfurt (home)
- Eintracht Frankfurt’s home record (W7, D3, L5) is respectable.
- Riera’s side, who drew 1-1 with Hamburg at the Volksparkstadion in their last league meeting, have scored in most of their home league games this season and should be able to find the net against a side struggling for goals on the road.
- 7th-placed Eintracht Frankfurt (43 points from 31 games) take on 15th-placed Hamburger SV (31 points from 31 games).
Hamburger SV (away)
- Hamburger SV have two wins, four draws and nine defeats from 15 away fixtures.
- Polzin’s men arrive in bad form with four defeats and one draw from their last five Bundesliga matches, while Frankfurt have been inconsistent with one win, two draws and two defeats during the same spell.
Head-to-Head
The last Bundesliga meeting between the clubs ended in a 1-1 draw in Hamburg .
Key Players
- Albert Sambi Lokonga tops Hamburg’s Bundesliga scoring charts with only five goals from 23 games.
- Robert Glatzel, who has scored two in their last five, offers a goal threat for Hamburg.
- Jonathan Burkardt has 10 goals in 19 Bundesliga appearances this season for Frankfurt.
Betting Insights
- The hosts are the clear favorites for this at 1.74.
- Frankfurt have failed to win their last two at home, so backing a home outright win is avoided.
- The odds for over 2.5 goals (1.49) and both teams to score (1.53) seem a good fit for this clash.
Prediction
- Eintracht Frankfurt’s better home form and Hamburg’s poor away record suggest the home side are more likely to edge it.
- Eintracht Frankfurt have conceded 23 goals in their 15 home games, which suggests Hamburg will get some joy in the final third.
