Heidenheim vs Eintracht Frankfurt prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2024-11-30 16:30.
[p]Now without a win in six Bundesliga games, Heidenheim enter the weekend at risk of setting a new club record of consecutive winless top-flight games (D1, L5). Sitting outside of the drop zone on ten points ahead of the round, Frank Schmidt’s men had an identical points haul at this stage of last season and still managed to qualify for European football, and subsequently head into this clash on the back of their first continental defeat in midweek. [/p]
[p]There’s no disgrace in that loss coming against Chelsea, though another setback on home soil won’t help confidence. That’s because Heidenheim have scored just once in four home league games since they posted a stunning 4-0 win to kick off the campaign here (D1, L3). Combine that run with the fact that the hosts have lost each of their previous meetings against Eintracht Frankfurt (L3), and this could foreseeably be a long afternoon for Heidenheim. [/p]
[p]Picking up 23 points from the opening 11 rounds, Dino Toppmöller has overseen Frankfurt’s strongest start to a Bundesliga campaign since the introduction of three points for a win back in 1995. Scoring 27 goals along the way, the Eagles haven’t scored more at this stage of a top-flight campaign since Dino’s father, Klaus, managed 30 goals with the side back in 1993/94. [/p]
[p]Taking to the road could be an issue for Frankfurt as eight of their ten points dropped came away from home (W3, D1, L2). They do travel on the back of a 3-2 win at Stuttgart, but that result bookends what is now a 14-game run of away league games without a clean sheet which stretches back to January, while Frankfurt also failed to keep a clean sheet in a 2-1 win over Midtjylland in Europe on Thursday.[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Leo Scienza is the second-most fouled player in the Bundesliga (34) behind only Frankfurt’s Omar Marmoush (37), and both of his league goals this season came before the interval. For Frankfurt, Ansgar Knauff scored his first goal of last season against Heidenheim and still remains unbeaten when scoring for the club (W10, D3). [/p]
[p]Hot streak: Frankfurt have scored before half-time in each of their last ten Bundesliga matches. [/p]
