Eintracht Frankfurt: Scoring Goals for Fun
Daichi Kamada converted two penalties as Eintracht Frankfurt ran out as 5-1 winners at home to Bayer Leverkusen last weekend. They doubled that with a superb 2-1 win against Marseille in the Champions League midweek action keeping their UCL knock-out stages hopes alive.
The midweek win was Eintracht’s fourth consecutive win across all competitions. They are now sitting fourth in the standings with 20 points to their name, three points behind leaders Union Berlin. There’s a thrilling fight at the top of the Bundesliga table with six teams separated by just five points, so every success is gold.
After a slow start to the season, Eintracht Frankfurt looks set to make a serious push for a top-four finish. Finally, the team gelled and is now scoring goals for fun. They have scored nine goals from set-piece situations this season, the highest in the Bundesliga so far. We expect them to extend their brilliant scoring run against Dortmund and, why not, add three more points to their season tally. If you’re betting online, you should know that this match has goals written all over it.
Borussia Dortmund: Struggling on the Road
Dortmund’s away struggles are well known. They lost their last three Bundesliga road games, failing to score in two of them. Despite these issues, they are still sitting fifth in the domestic league standings, just one point behind Eintracht.
This week, they managed to keep Man City to a goalless draw earning their spot in the UCL round of 16. However, as the World Cup in November will affect the schedule of practically every league in Europe, we will see another temporary alteration. Bundesliga teams, in particular, will have to deal with an incredibly condensed timetable.
This is one of the reasons for Dortmund’s injury crisis. Once again, they will be without many key players for this trip. Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, Mahmoud Dahoud, Thomas Meunier, Mateu Morey Bauza, and Marco Reus are all injured. Dortmund’s summer transfer, striker Sebastien Haller returned to the training pitch after testicular tumor surgery. He will probably play his first official game after the World Cup. We won’t include Dortmund in our soccer picks and parlays because of their lack of consistency and away struggles.

Frankfurt vs Dortmund Prediction
Despite playing on the road, the hosts enter this clash as slight favorites priced at +140 on the three-way moneyline according to the latest soccer odds, while the goal line is set at three.
The goal line is set too low, given the head-to-head record between the two teams. And that’s not all… We are talking about two of the most entertaining teams in the Bundesliga. This match could go either way, so it’s better to stay away from the winners’ market. The two teams are separated by just one point, and they will be eager to maintain the pressure on the top spots and close the gap between them. We expect another entertaining match and at least three marks on the scoresheet.
