Barcelona
- Barcelona have won 4 and lost 1 of their last 5 matches in all competitions.
- Hans-Dieter Flick has installed a high-tempo, attacking, front-foot pressing game at Barcelona, which has seen them score a staggering 3.50 goals per home game in the Champions League so far, which is a key stat in our FC Barcelona vs Eintracht Frankfurt betting tips section.
- However, they have conceded 1.50 themselves and come into this with 1 win and 1 defeat from their 2 home fixtures, suggesting they can be breached, a point worth considering in the FC Barcelona vs Eintracht Frankfurt betting tips.
- Barcelona are on a 3 game winning streak in all competitions, recently coming back from a goal behind to beat Atletico Madrid 3-1 at home, following a 5-3 win at Real Betis in LaLiga.
- Ferran Torres has lit Barcelona up over this run, netting 6 times in their last 5 games, while Marcus Rashford leads the scoring charts in the Champions League, with 4 in 5.
Eintracht Frankfurt
- Eintracht Frankfurt have been less consistent, with 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats from their last 5, including a 6-0 hammering at the hands of RB Leipzig on the road and a 1-1 draw at home against Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.
- A flexible back-three system has been their staple in this competition, with attacking wing-backs, a compact block and a side that can play fast and direct through the half-spaces on the counter, which could influence the FC Barcelona vs Eintracht Frankfurt prediction.
- Frankfurt have a goal-scoring problem on the road, having only netted once in their 2 European fixtures, and Jonathan Burkardt, who tops the scoring for the Eagles in the Champions League with 3 goals in 5 games, is unlikely to be the solution on Tuesday.
- He has scored just 2 of the 6 goals that Frankfurt have scored in their last 5.
Head-to-Head
Frankfurt will look to repeat their famous 2022 victory at Barcelona as they prepare to take on the Spanish giants, but this is a very different version of the Blaugrana and it’s anyone’s game. This FC Barcelona vs Eintracht Frankfurt betting tips analysis should take into consideration recent form and squad changes.

Betting Insights
However, as the Blaugrana have a high defensive line, there may be a few counter attacking opportunities for the Germans, so the ‘Over 2.5 goals’ market is a solid play at 1.21 , considering Barcelona have been scoring 3.50 per home game in this competition.
Prediction
I am going for a comfortable victory for the home side in this clash of playing styles, with Barcelona having the quality to pick Frankfurt apart and Frankfurt simply not having enough firepower to trouble the hosts.
