Competition: Bundesliga
Market: Eintracht Frankfurt win
Odds: 10/11 @ 1xBet
Turning their attention back to Bundesliga action on Sunday afternoon, Eintracht Frankfurt will travel to a struggling Heidenheim.
Starting with the hosts, while Heidenheim might have enjoyed a famous Bundesliga fairytale last season as they claimed an iconic European ticket, Frank Schmidt’s side have come crashing back down to earth in some style. Falling to a routine 2-0 loss at home against Premier League giants Chelsea, they find themselves at the heart of what has become a public crisis. Marking their return from November’s international break with an action-packed 5-2 drumming at the hands of defending Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen, the Reds suddenly find themselves in a relegation scrap. Heading into November’s fortnight interval with a 3-1 loss at home against Wolfsburg, Heidenheim have come under plenty of recent scrutiny. Along with losing each of their last three appearances across all competitions by an aggregate score of 10-3, Sunday’s hosts have also lost five of their previous six outings. Opening up this weekend’s fixtures holding just a two-point buffer from slipping into the relegation play-off spot, Schmidt’s downbeat squad should be bracing themselves for another stern examination here.
As for the visitors, continuing on what has been a sensational romp since opening up the new campaign, Eintracht Frankfurt are certainly firing on all cylinders. Opening up this weekend’s fixtures sat second in the Bundesliga table and dreaming of the chance to book a famous Champions League return, Dino Toppmoller’s men have rightfully received a string of plaudits from across the continent. Marking their return from November’s international break with a 1-0 victory at home against Werder Bremen, the Eagles will be smelling the chance to make another statement here. Extending on their stellar purple patch earlier in the week as they collected a 2-1 victory away at Midtjylland while in Europa League action, Frankfurt have won each of their previous six appearances across all competitions. In fact, Toppmoller’s men have also collected 22 points from their last eight outings. Likewise, claiming a 2-1 win when they last travelled to Heidenheim back in March, Frankfurt will be confident of producing a repeat display.
