Eintracht Frankfurt vs Augsburg prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2024-12-06 14:30.
[p]Eintracht Frankfurt closed the gap on Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich to four points with a 4-0 win over Heidenheim on Sunday, their fourth successive league win in a sequence that’s seen them net 15 times! As they prepare to take on Augsburg, fans will be optimistic of a fifth-straight Bundesliga triumph given they’ve only lost one of the last nine H2Hs (W5, D3).[/p]
[p]Not since February 2021 have the Eagles won five league games in a row, but matching that is within their sights given they have an unbeaten Bundesliga home record this term (W4, D1). If Frankfurt start well, then their fans will feel they’re on their way as they’ve netted before half-time in all five of those matches and only failed to score first once – in a 3-3 draw with Bayern. [/p]
[p]There was plenty of relief at Augsburg last weekend as they beat struggling Bochum 1-0 to end a three-match winless run in the Bundesliga that saw them score just once (D2, L1). Coming out on top of a close-fought encounter left them five points clear of the relegation zone, exactly one point better off than their 12-game performances of both of the last two seasons.[/p]
[p]However, they have been poor on the road of late, last winning a Bundesliga game away from home in March against Wolfsburg (D1, L8 since) – including a 3-1 H2H defeat here in April. That was despite Augsburg scoring first, but conceding at least three times in four of their last five Bundesliga road games also suggests that this game could be full of goals.[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Omar Marmoush has scored six times across Frankfurt’s last six home league games, with three of those goals coming after the 75th minute. Augsburg marksman Phillip Tietz, by contrast, has scored both of his side’s last two league goals on the road, while his last two league strikes at any venue opened the scoring between the 30th and 40th minute.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Frankfurt have led four of their last five league games 1-0 at half-time.[/p]
