Just eight teams are left in the hunt for the DFB Pokal in Germany, and two of the likely contenders for the top prize will clash in Frankfurt on Tuesday. Eintracht will have the home advantage, but Union Berlin should come into the match in good confidence, as they chase a first domestic honour.
DFB Pokal Preview
Two of the most talented sides in the Bundesliga will clash in the DFB Pokal on Tuesday, with both chasing an illustrious domestic honour. Union Berlin remain in the hunt for the top-flight title, as they sit four points off the top, meaning that they could yet end this season with an extremely unlikely doubt. The capital club previously reached the final of the DFB Pokal, but they were beaten in the 2000-01 showcase.
Their recent form has been incredibly consistent, as they have recorded back-to-back wins in the Bundesliga, and have lost just once in their previous five. Union maintained their unlikely championship push over the weekend, as they registered a comfortable 3-0 home success against Stuttgart, with all efforts being netted in the second half.
Eintracht Frankfurt ended last season with a historic success, as they won the Europa League for the second time in their history. However, they have won just one domestic honour in Germany since the turn of the millennium. That success was achieved back in 2018, as they won the DFB Pokal.
But, they come into this quarterfinal showdown with issues, as they have gone five domestic fixtures without a victory. However, just one defeat has been inflicted in their previous four matches. In their previous match, they held Bochum to a draw, with Randal Kolo Muani finding the net.
Eintracht Frankfurt vs Union Berlin Head to Head
Union Berlin has won two of their previous three matches against Frankfurt. However, Frankfurt has claimed victory in each of their last three home matches against Union. Interestingly, each of the previous three have been won by a scoreline of 2-0 by the team playing at home.
Eintracht Frankfurt vs Union Berlin Prediction
Frankfurt’s home advantage will give them an excellent chance this week. However, we don’t like their form coming into the fixture. Therefore, we could see Union booking their place in the last four of the DFB Pokal.
