Dortmund vs Eintracht Frankfurt prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2024-03-16 16:30.
[p]One early goal and another late on did the job for Borussia Dortmund as they beat PSV 2-0 in the UEFA Champions League in midweek, which remains their only chance of silverware this term. Winning their last two league fixtures, both away from home, has also kept the Black and Yellows on track to qualify for Europe’s premier competition next term via the league.[/p]
[p]An unexpected 3-2 defeat to Hoffenheim in their last home Bundesliga fixture shows why Edin Terzić’s side can take nothing for granted as they host Eintracht Frankfurt, a side against whom they’ve scored 4+ goals in three of the last four H2Hs they hosted (W3, L1). Dortmund also netted at least twice in their last three league games at Signal Iduna Park (W2, L1), so entertainment certainly seems likely.[/p]
[p]Frankfurt are seven points behind Dortmund, but a repeat of their 2-1 victory here in April 2021 would give them renewed hope of a top-four finish, even if a more realistic target is the UEFA Europa or Europa Conference League via the top-six. On a five-match unbeaten run in the league (W2, D3), they’ve won their last two, most recently overcoming nine-man Hoffenheim 3-1.[/p]
[p]However, the Eagles haven’t found travelling away easy to come by of late, winning just two of their last eight Bundesliga road outings (D3, L3). While Dortmund’s recent home games have provided plenty of goal action, so too have Frankfurt’s fixtures away from home, with their last four in the league producing an average of 3.75 goals per game (W1, D2, L1).[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Jadon Sancho has scored in Dortmund’s last two games, and each of his last four goals for any club arrived before half-time. Junior Dina Ebimbe has been in the thick of the action recently with a goal and two first-half bookings across Frankfurt’s last three games.[/p]
[p]Hot streak: Frankfurt are unbeaten when leading at half-time in the Bundesliga this term (W7, D2).[/p]
