Key Highlights

Eintracht Frankfurt’s Downturn in Form

Eintracht’s promising season has melted away in recent matches as their poor form has seen them fall sharply down the table from challenging for Champions League places to their current 7th perch.

Highly rated Oliver Glasner has seen his side for five matches in the Bundesliga without a win. In their last five outings, they have hauled three points (three draws and two defeats).

Glasner will hope that his side have the character and composure to turn their form around, starting with the home clash against Mönchengladbach on Saturday. 

Mönchengladbach Inability to Win Matches in the Bundesliga

Before the 2-0 win over Wolfsburg on Sunday, Mönchengladbach had not won a match in their previous five matches. This run included three draws and two defeats. This added up to 3 points collected, and 12 points dropped.

This abysmal run in the Bundesliga has seen Mönchengladbach drop to 10th on the table with 35 points, which means they are closer to the relegation zone than they are to the top of the table.

Daniel Farke will be focused on turning his side’s form around in the Bundesliga. Bolstering their chances of winning matches is crucial to their ability to turn their season around. 

Daniel Farke will know that if they turn the draws into wins, they will significantly improve their chances of climbing into the top half of the table in the run-in.

Prediction

Playing at home, Eintracht will focus on dominating the match through possession, creating numerous chances, and setting the match’s tempo.

Keeping the ball will allow Glasner’s men to control the game and ensure that they do not give chances away. Pressing will enable them to win the ball back as soon as they lose it. Combining these two aspects will put Eintracht on the front foot and enable them to create goal-scoring chances.

Mönchengladbach will look to be compact in their approach. They will defend deep to guard against being caught out with pace. They will defend in numbers to ensure that they crowd out the Eintracht attackers and make it difficult for them to penetrate. Transitions will allow Mönchengladbach to attack with pace and catch Eintracht out at the back.

Eintracht will win the match and bounce back to winning form in the Bundesliga.
