Bundesliga Preview

Eintracht Frankfurt’s advantage in the race for a European spot in the Bundesliga has been wiped away, as they now sit just a point clear of Bayer Leverkusen ahead of this clash between the sides this weekend. Their recent form has been extremely poor, as Frankfurt has gone five without a win in the Bundesliga, and have picked up just three points from a possible 15. 

The visitors come into this game after having been held to a third draw in four league matches last weekend, with each of their ties being recorded following a 1-1 scoreline. Last weekend’s draw was picked up against Bochum. Frankfurt battled back from a goal down, but their only effort was netted from the penalty spot by Randal Kolo Muani. They will need to show much more in the attacking third this weekend. 

Bayer Leverkusen has been one of the in-form sides in the Bundesliga over the past six weeks, and they come into this fixture looking to record a fifth straight league win. Xabi Alonso’s side has been excellent in recent weeks, and they could move into a European spot for the first time this season on Saturday. 

Leverkusen’s winning run was stretched to four last weekend, as they registered a 3-0 win on the road against Schalke. All goals were scored in the second half, with the impressive Jeremie Frimpong breaking the deadlock. Further efforts were netted by Florian Wirtz and Sardar Azmoun. But, this is a huge test of their European credentials. 

Bayer Leverkusen vs Eintracht Frankfurt Head to Head

There appears to be a clear bias for home success in this fixture, with each of the last ten being won by the club with home advantage. Over that period, Leverkusen has picked up five straight wins at BayArena against Frankfurt, including a 2-0 success last season. However, Frankfurt was 5-1 winners in the reverse fixture this term.

The trend of home victories in this fixture looks a difficult angle to ignore this weekend. Therefore, we will be siding with the victory that Leverkusen needs to move into the European spots.
