On Saturday afternoon, Eintracht Frankfurt will look to maintain their spot in the Bundesliga’s top-six in gameweek 34 when they welcome RB Leipzig to the Deutsche Bank Park.
Frankfurt looking to clinch a top-six spotThe Eagles kick off their final game of the Bundesliga campaign in sixth place in the table, occupying the final Europa League spot.
However, they are just three points clear of seventh-place Hoffenheim, although they do have a superior goal difference to the side from Sinsheim. Dino Toppmoller’s team needs a draw to ensure a top-six finish.
Frankfurt’s recent form in the Bundesliga has jeopardised their European chances, as they have won just one of their previous eight games.
Their recent league games have at least delivered on goals, with over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five outings.
Eintracht has been difficult to beat on home soil in the German top flight lately. A 5-1 defeat against Bayer Leverkusen in their last home match ended a nine-game unbeaten home run in the Bundesliga.
RB Leipzig looking to continue their unbeaten runDie Roten Bullen have already confirmed fourth place in the Bundesliga, booking a place in next season’s Champions League.
A 1-1 home draw against Werder Bremen last time out in the German top-flight means that Leipzig are unbeaten in ten Bundesliga games, having recorded seven wins and three draws.
One key to the visitors’ recent unbeaten run has been their attacking prowess, as they have scored at least two goals in seven of the last ten outings.
Leipzig’s recent away form has been strong in the Bundesliga. They are unbeaten in five league games on their travels, having recorded four wins and a draw.
What am I backing?I can see this game being an entertaining and high-scoring encounter, which is why the bet I am backing is over 2.5 goals scored.
