Stuttgart vs Eintracht Frankfurt prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2026-01-12 17:30.
[p]Just three points separate Stuttgart and Eintracht Frankfurt in the race for the European spots in the Bundesliga, setting things up nicely for this midweek clash.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Stuttgart thrashed Bayer Leverkusen 4-1 on Saturday, and after scoring four times for the third time in four competitive games they’re building some serious momentum (W3, D1). Looking to kick on from that impressive performance and further threaten the top four, Stuttgart will have to replicate that clinical edge on home soil, where they’ve failed to score in their last two Bundesliga fixtures (D1, L1). Another disappointment would seem unlikely given they haven’t gone three consecutive top-flight games here without netting since a run of six that ended in February 2015, while they’ve also won six Tuesday-held competitive games in a row.[/p]
[p]Conceding an equaliser deep into injury time saw Frankfurt held to a 3-3 draw against Dortmund on Friday night, although indifferent results for most of the other top-four hopefuls meant they didn’t really lose ground in the race for the Champions League. The Eagles start this fixture three points behind Stuttgart, who occupy a European berth, but just one win from their last seven competitive outings (D3, L3) is hardly form which is indicative of a side capable of closing that gap here. Their Bundesliga away form across their last six such games makes for better reading (W2, D3, L1), yet any optimism is sure to be tempered by a negative record this season against fellow top-half sides (W1, D2, L4). [/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Frankfurt have only lost two of the last 13 H2Hs (W7, D4), including doing the double over Stuttgart last term, and have won on five of their last seven visits to MHPArena (D1, L1).[/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]Twelve of Stuttgart’s 16 league games this season featured over 2.5 goals.[/p]
[p]Stuttgart have earned fewer than five corners in four of their last five home league games.[/p]
[p]Frankfurt’s last six Bundesliga fixtures have produced an average of four goals per game.[/p]
[p]Frankfurt have conceded in each of their last ten away league outings.[/p]
[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]
[p]Deniz Undav had a hand in three of Stuttgart’s four goals against Leverkusen (G1, A2) and nine of his 11 club goals this season arrived after half-time. Ex-Stuttgart midfielder Mahmoud Dahoud completed Frankfurt’s scoring against Dortmund, and four of his last six club goals came after the 85th minute.[/p]
[p]Luca Jaquez, Tiago Tomás and Dan-Axel Zagadou are unlikely to feature for Stuttgart while Frankfurt remain without a number of experienced players including Michy Batshuayi and Jonathan Burkardt. [/p]
