Eintracht Braunschweig vs Eintracht Frankfurt Predictions

• Both teams have scored in seven of Eintracht Braunschweig’s last eight games in the cup
• The hosts have lost and conceded in their first two league games this term
• Eintracht Frankfurt have impressed in preseason and look too strong for the hosts

Back the hosts to struggle again

Eintracht Braunschweig have had a difficult start to the new season, they find themselves bottom of the 2. Bundesliga after losing their first two matches. After conceding eight times across those two defeats, the last thing they need is the visit of a Bundesliga side aiming to make amends.

Eintracht Frankfurt finished sixth last term, well behind the five sides who booked a Champions League spot. They’re looking for a stronger campaign this year, especially after exiting the cup at the hands of third-tier Saarbrucken.

Frankfurt should be confident of a strong start, as they meet an Eintracht Braunschweig side that have lost 5-1 to Schalke and 3-1 to Magdeburg in their first two games. While the hosts have seen both teams score in seven of their last eight cup ties, they’ve progressed from just two of those.

Eintracht Frankfurt should prove to be the stronger side and they should record a comfortable win, but back the hosts to get another goal in a defeat.
