Union Berlin Eintracht Frankfurt prediction 2023-11-04

Union Berlin vs Eintracht Frankfurt prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2023-11-03 14:30.
From the collective joy of qualifying for the UEFA Champions League for the first time in club history last season, Union Berlin have since descended to new lows as their ongoing losing streak shows no sign of coming to an end. A 1-0 loss to Stuttgart saw Die Eisernen bow out of the DFB-Pokal in midweek, extending their run of defeats to an almighty 11 consecutive matches, with each of the last four also seeing Urs Fischerā€™s side fail to score.

Despite his legendary status at the club, Fischer now finds himself under immense pressure in terms of keeping his job unless results improve quickly. Heā€™ll be grateful to see their next outing come at home at least, as even though Union have lost three consecutive league matches here ā€˜to nilā€™, they didnā€™t lose on home soil in the Bundesliga all last term, a sequence that included a 2-0 win over upcoming visitors Eintracht Frankfurt.

That was one of just three defeats that Frankfurt have suffered in their 16 prior meetings with Union (W9, D4), and given their hostsā€™ recent struggles, Dino Toppmƶllerā€™s side must feel confident of a first away H2H victory here since September 2019. The Eagles will likely have spent most of the last week analysing their defending from their recent 3-3 draw with Borussia Dortmund, as they twice surrendered the lead in that stalemate.

That was very much an anomaly however, as Frankfurt had conceded just six goals from their other eight Bundesliga matches, a division-low tally! Hunting down the top-six is the objective now, and an improvement on the road would go a long way to helping that mission as their recent victory at Hoffenheim was their first away league win since November 2022 (D7, L7).

Players to watch: Unionā€™s Kevin Behrens netted in this fixture last season, and as all of his four strikes this season arrived in wins, the hosts will be desperate for him to be on the scoresheet again here. Opposite number Omar Marmoush struck a brace against Dortmund, continuing a trend thatā€™s seen five of his eight goals this term being his sideā€™s match opener.

Hot stat: Each of the last four competitive H2Hs ended 2-0 (UB: W2, L2).
