Eintracht Frankfurt vs Cologne Predictions

• Frankfurt won five of the last seven home H2H encounters.
• Cologne have had fewer days resting time after their midweek European exploits.
• Frankfurt can end their worst Bundesliga winless run since the 80s with victory.

Backing the Eagles to soar once again

Picking Frankfurt at a favourites price seems like risky business in any game of late after their winless start to the new season has served to extend their run of Bundesliga games without victory to ten, their longest run since a 16-game rotten streak in 1983/84!

Even so, they welcome a Cologne side who’re in between two crucial legs to find out if they will be competing in the Europa Conference League, so the Billy Goats minds may well be elsewhere ahead of this encounter with a trip to Hungary directly following this.

That’s not to mention that these are not green pastures for Cologne, they’ve lost in five of their last seven visits to Frankfurt (D1, L1) which could be about to get even worse after losing their talismanic striker Anthony Modeste to the irresistible Bayern Munich.

Frankfurt are getting their priorities in order

Frankfurt boss Oliver Glasner recently mentioned that his side are not just a European outfit, that is after coming under fire about their current winless run which seemed to run in an alternate dimension to their imperious European form.

With no such trophies on the line, we believe that Frankfurt can finally turn their domestic form around and get to work on securing yet another European finish this season, starting with a win over Cologne.

As for the correct score, we’re sticking with a rather slender 1-0 margin of victory for Oliver Glasner’s European champions.
