Two sides at opposite ends of the league table will do battle this week, as Eintracht Frankfurt welcome Freiburg to the Commerzbank Arena. The form of both of these sides means that this game could go either way, but who should gamblers be placing their wager on?
Bundesliga Preview
It has been a difficult season to this point for Eintracht Frankfurt, and there is a feeling that they need to pick up a win from somewhere to ease their relegation worries. Their form has seen them drop down the division, and they are now just four points away from Fortuna Dusseldorf in the relegation playoff spot. Their form over the past six games has been damaging, as they have won just once.
That victory came against Augsburg at the beginning of February. Since then, they have lost their last five in the Bundesliga. Their two games since the restart have come against Borussia Monchengladbach and Bayern Munich. They were beaten 5-2 by Bayern Munich in their most recent fixture. Frankfurt trailed 3-0 in that game, but they managed to get a foothold in the game by scoring twice in three minutes. However, Bayern pushed up a gear and managed to secure their win.
Freiburg still have European hopes of their own for the remainder of this season, as they are just two points behind Wolfsburg, who are sixth. However, they need to improve their form, as they have won just once in their previous six. Since the restart, they are yet to win as the draw against RB Leipzig, before they were beaten last time out against Werder Bremen. That disappointing defeat against the team second bottom means that their chances of reaching the Europa League will rest on this fixture against Frankfurt. They have a difficult run of fixtures, as they play Bayer Leverkusen, Monchengladbach and Wolfsburg over the coming weeks.
Eintracht Frankfurt vs SC Freiburg Head To Head
There is nothing between these two sides in the overall record, as both teams have won on six occasions. There have also been five drawn games between Frankfurt and Freiburg. The match earlier in the season ended in a 1-0 win for Freiburg.
Eintracht Frankfurt vs SC Freiburg Prediction
This is a difficult fixture to predict, as both sides have only won once in their previous six. There will be pressure on Frankfurt to get the win this week, as a defeat could see them end the round just one point outside the relegation playoff spot. However, Freiburg will make it difficult for them, which means the most likely result would be a draw.
