It promises to be an exciting end to the season in the Bundesliga. Eintracht Frankfurt will be looking to get back on track this weekend, as they have gone four without a victory. They will have home advantage on Friday evening against Bochum.
Bundesliga Preview
This could be a crucial fixture for Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga this weekend, as they look to get their season back on track following the international break. Frankfurt comes into this fixture sitting sixth in the standings, but they could drop out of the European spots if they are beaten on Friday, and results go against them across the weekend.
Frankfurt certainly need to respond after a poor run of form before the international break, as they failed to win in four matches. That run of form has seen them go six points off the pace in the race for a Champions League spot. Their most recent loss was a damaging 2-0 defeat against Union Berlin, who remain one of their main rivals for a Champions League finish this term.
The international break may have come at a bad time for Bochum, as they had just hit form. They had won each of their last two before the international break, which has seen them move four points above the relegation places. However, they could get dragged back into the scrap at the bottom of the standings if they fall to a 17th loss this season on Friday.
No team in the Bundesliga has lost more regularly this term, while they also have the worst away record in the German top-flight in terms of goals conceded. However, they should come into this fixture in good spirits after their 1-0 win against RB Leipzig in their previous fixture.
Eintracht Frankfurt vs Bochum Head to Head
Five of the previous six matches between these sides in the Bundesliga has been won by the team playing at home. That includes a victory for Frankfurt in this exact fixture last season. However, Bochum comes into this match having won the reverse fixture 3-0 earlier this term.
Eintracht Frankfurt vs Bochum Prediction
Bochum’s away record appears to be the key trend to follow for this fixture on Friday. We expect a response from Frankfurt following their poor recent run of results, and we could see them recording a 3-1 home win.
