The German Bundesliga continues on Sunday and our next preview features a clash between RB Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt as the betting tips continue at the Red Bull Arena.
Leipzig Prediction – Can RB Leipzig register first home win?
Sunday afternoon’s hosts, RB Leipzig, recorded an emphatic 4-0 win away at newly promoted Union Berlin in last weekend’s opening match of the Bundesliga season, and they’ll now return to home turf for this Sunday’s clash against Eintracht Frankfurt looking for back-to-back wins.
Leipzig have rekindled some of their previous form in recent times as the hosts have won 4 of their last 5 matches in all competitions, while results overall in the Bundesliga have seen RB Leipzig suffer just 1 defeat out of their last 17 matches, which was a 2-1 loss away at Werder Bremen on the final day of last season.
With just 1 defeat out of their last 18 matches on home turf at their Red Bull Arena in the Bundesliga, RB Leipzig have made themselves a very hard team to beat in their own backyard, and they’ve won 2 of the 3 meetings at home against today’s opponents, Eintracht Frankfurt.
Of their last 18 home matches, RB Leipzig have kept a total of 10 clean sheets as their success has been built upon solid foundation at the back.
Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction – Can Eintracht Frankfurt bounce back?
It was a week of mixed fortunes for Sunday afternoon’s visitors, Eintracht Frankfurt, as they secured an opening day of the season win against Hoffenheim in a 1-0 home win at their Commerzbank-Arena, but were then handed a defeat in midweek in their Europa League tie against French side, Strasbourg.
Eintracht Frankfurt suffered a 1-0 loss away at Strasbourg in the 1st leg of their Europa League play-off tie, and will now have to come from behind in the return leg on Thursday night if they’re to progress through to the group stage of the competition.
This must surely have some bearing on Eintracht Frankfurt manager, Adi Hutter’s selection for this upcoming match at Leipzig this Sunday, although he’ll also be wary of his side’s last two away matches in the Bundesliga which have both ended in heavy defeats.
Towards the end of last season, Eintracht Frankfurt found themselves on the end of 6-1 and 5-1 thrashings at the hands of Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich respectively, so they’ll be keen to put in a better shift this Sunday.
Key-Facts – Leipzig v Eintracht Frankfurt
- RB Leipzig have lost just 1 of their last 18 matches at home in the Bundesliga
- RB Leipzig have kept a total of 10 clean sheets within these last 18 matches
- Eintracht Frankfurt have conceded 11 goals in their last 2 away matches
Betting Tips Verdict
