Eintracht Frankfurt v Borussia Dortmund German Cup Final Betting Tips

It is a big day out for Eintracht Frankfurt on the weekend as they go as underdogs in the German Cup Final. It has been something of a dramatic path to the final for them as they have gone to penalties in three of their ties with the other two ties in their run to the final this year having been won by a one goal margin only. Eintracht Frankfurt to win by a one-goal margin at Bet365 is a price of 7/1 as they are underdogs for this game. That having been said they posted a home win over Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga this season and that was by a one-goal margin. They have gone W3 L3 in their last six games against BVB. The last time that these two met in the German Cup was back in 2014, with Frankfurt losing that tie. They have lost both of their previous German Cup fixtures against Dortmund. Over 2.5 goals at bet365 is trading at a price of 3/5 and that has happened in three of the last four meetings. Eintracht Frankfurt are 11/4 at Bet365 to lift the trophy, with Borussia Dortmund in at 1/4.

Of course there is no way that Eintracht Frankfurt can stand toe to toe with the kind of scoring power that Borussia Dortmund bring to the table. Dortmund scored exactly twice as many goals as Frankfurt did during the Bundesliga campaign. Dortmund managed to grab the final Champions League spot with a third-place finish in the league on the final day of the season and can relax into the Cup now. They have suffered a loss in each of the last three German Cup Finals, having been in four of the last five (W1 L3). Two of those last three defeats in the final were against Bayern Munich and the win in that sequence was landed in 2012 which was just their third and if they do win this one then it will move them onto four, level with Eintracht Frankfurt, FC Kohl and FC Nurnberg. Frankfurt’s last title came all the way back in 1988. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang heads up both the First Goalscorer and Anytime Goalscorer markets. He scored in both league games against them this season. In the bet356 correct score market at Dortmund 2-0 result is a 6/1 shortest priced option.
