FC Bayern Munich
- Saturday’s Bundesliga matchday features a highlight clash between the current leaders, FC Bayern Munich, and the side sitting seventh, Eintracht Frankfurt.
- With 57 points from 22 matches, Bayern Munich are strong leaders in the Bundesliga table, and they enter this clash in great shape.
- In total, Bayern have won nine, drawn one and lost one of their home league games this season, averaging a massive 4.09 goals scored per game and conceding just 0.91 per match.
- Kompany’s 4-2-3-1 system is a high-energy, high-pressing one that forces teams to play at a high tempo, while the Bavarians have the depth and technical quality to make it work.
Eintracht Frankfurt
- Eintracht Frankfurt, meanwhile, have been in poor form recently, winning just one of their last five matches and losing three times.
- A 1-1 draw away at Union Berlin and a 3-0 win over Borussia Monchengladbach have put them seventh in the Bundesliga, but they will need to improve to challenge for Europe next term.
- Eintracht have three wins, five draws and three defeats from their 11 Bundesliga away games this campaign, conceding an average of 2.55 per game.
- Up front, Jonathan Burkardt is Frankfurt’s clinical focal point, with eight goals in 10 appearances in this competition.
Head-to-Head
Bayern Munich have won three of the last five meetings between the sides, including a 3-0 victory in the return fixture four months ago.
Key Players
- Jamal Musiala is the creative spark for this team, and Harry Kane is their talisman up top - he leads the Bundesliga scoring charts with 26 goals in 22 games.
- Jonathan Burkardt is Frankfurt’s clinical focal point, with 8 goals in 10 appearances in this competition.
Betting Insights
Given Bayern’s terrific home form and the fact that they have won both of their last two home games, the 1.16 favourites should justify their tag with a straightforward win on Saturday.
Prediction
Bayern’s win is the best bet here, while over 2.5 goals looks a very good bet at 1.2 given their respective averages.
