Eintracht Frankfurt vs St. Pauli prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2025-05-10 15:30.
[p]For the statistical fans amongst us, this is somewhat of a poignant contest for Eintracht Frankfurt who, founded in 1899, will here play their 1,899th Bundesliga contest. That’ll be an afterthought for Dino Toppmöller and his men, who are within touching distance of Champions League football as they start the round five points clear of fifth with just two games to play. [/p]
[p]Frankfurt have worked themselves into this strong position by losing just one of their previous seven league outings (W4, D2). They should expect to build on that given their strong record against visitors St Pauli, with none of their previous six home Bundesliga H2Hs ending in defeat (W3, D3). [/p]
[p]The visitors could come into the game still looking to secure their own Bundesliga survival. It’s an aim they would have hoped to have achieved already pre-round, but just one win in their last six league matches (D3, L2) has left them with work to do. The gap between them and the relegation play-off place in 16th was five points at the start of the round, and they boast far superior goal differences to their fellow relegation contenders, so their fate remains firmly in their own hands.[/p]
[p]St Pauli should maintain their top-flight status for another season, yet it’s clear to see what improvements need to be made in the summer. They have scored a league-low 26 goals in the Bundesliga this season and, after their 1-0 loss in Stuttgart, have drawn a blank in a league-high 16 games, both of which are new unwanted club records after 32 top-flight matchdays.[/p]
[p]Key battle: Frankfurt’s Hugo Ekitike has registered six goal contributions (G3, A3) across his past six appearances, with his two most recent goals both arriving in the final 30 minutes of the game. With St Pauli goalkeeper Nikola Vasilj suspended, Ben Alexander Voll is likely to take his place. Voll failed to keep a clean sheet in any of his final three competitive games for his previous club, third-tier Viktoria Köln. [/p]
[p]Hot streak: After Frankfurt won each of their last three Bundesliga home games without conceding a single goal, they could secure four consecutive top-flight home clean sheets for the first time since 1978. [/p]
