There’s just the one match scheduled in Friday night’s instalment of the German Bundesliga but nevertheless an important one as Union Berlin play host to Eintracht Frankfurt as the betting tips continue at the Stadion An der Alten Försterei.
Union Berlin Prediction – Can Union Berlin avoid third defeat on trot?
Following recent back-to-back defeats to Werder Bremen and Bayer Leverkusen in 2-1 and 2-0 defeats respectively, Friday night’s hosts, Union Berlin, will be desperate to avoid a third loss on the bounce in the German top flight.
Union Berlin currently occupy a lowly 14th place on the Bundesliga ladder prior to tonight’s clash as they’ve secured just the one win so far in this new domestic top flight campaign, which was an impressive 3-1 home win over 3rd placed Borussia Dortmund.
Union Berlin manager, Urs Fischer, will therefore be hoping his side can rekindle the kind of form which saw them grab all three points against Dortmund when they entertain Eintracht Frankfurt on Friday night.
The hosts have suffered defeats either side of that win though as they’ve been handed losses to RB Leipzig and Werder Bremen, so tonight’s encounter won’t be easy.
Forward Sebastian Andersson (3 goals) looks the most likely for the hosts tonight.
Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction – Can Frankfurt halt recent slide?
Friday night’s visitors, Eintracht Frankfurt, also head into this clash at the Stadion An der Alten Försterei on the back of some disappointing results as they’ve been handed defeats by Augsburg 2-1 away from home in the Bundesliga along with a heavy 3-0 loss at home to Premier League side, Arsenal, in last week’s Europa League.
Throw in a 2-2 draw at home with Borussia Dortmund in last week’s Bundesliga and that makes it 3 matches overall without a win for Frankfurt who currently reside in a mid-table position of 9th place in the German top flight.
On top of this recent slump, Eintracht Frankfurt have registered 2 league wins to date this season, but both of these have been achieved on home turf at their Commerzbank-Arena with victories over Hoffenheim 1-0 and a 2-1 win against Fortuna Dusseldorf.
Flip to results away from home and Eintracht Frankfurt have lost their last 4 away matches on the trot, while this season’s early record reads a poor 0-0-2 2/4 having lost at RB Leipzig and Augsburg, while the bigger picture shows Frankfurt have won just 3 of their last 12 matches on the road in the Bundesliga.
Key-Facts – Union Berlin v Frankfurt
- Union Berlin have recorded a 3-1 home win over Borussia Dortmund this season
- Eintracht Frankfurt have lost their last 4 away matches on the trot
- Frankfurt have won just 3 of their last 12 matches on the road in the Bundesliga
Betting Tips Verdict
Given Frankfurt’s ordinary record away from home, this gives Union Berlin a decent chance of picking up something from this clash.
