Eintracht Frankfurt vs Hertha Berlin Betting Tips

Despite Eintracht Frankfurt’s relatively good form, a 2-0 loss away to Schalke was almost expected. The hosts had been in excellent form and have players of a greater quality than Frankfurt.

So they won’t be too harmed by this defeat, and with their other Bundesliga defeat this season coming away to Wolfsburg I don’t think it’s too much to worry about for them.

Eintracht Frankfurt have won two of their other four games in the league, beating Stuttgart 4-1 and Cologne 6-2. The other two games have ended as draws; 1-1 at home to Augsburg and 0-0 at Hamburg.

This leaves the in 12^th position in the Bundesliga, three positions lower than their end result last season. But a win against Hertha Berlin on Sunday could see them move as high as 5^th place.

Hertha Berlin have also lost twice this season, with their defeats coming away to Borussia Dortmund and Wolfsburg. These are, like Eintracht Frankfurt’s losses, expected defeats against teams that hope to challenge Bayern Munich for the title this season.

They have beaten Augsburg, Stuttgart, and most recently Cologne, with a draw against Werder Bremen giving them a points total of ten from six games.

This puts them in 5^th position, which is a position they would be ecstatic to maintain considering their flirt with relegation last term.

They certainly look in good stead to improve upon last season’s disappointment. Their tally of ten points already means they are likely to beat last season’s total of 35 considering there are another 28 games to play.

Both of the meetings between these sides last season ended as draws, although they couldn’t have been more different, with one ending goalless and the other 4-4. Before this, Eintracht Frankfurt had won two of the last four, falling to defeat once and drawing again back in 2010.

I think the home advantage can push Eintracht Frankfurt towards another victory on Sunday, and odds of 19/20 for this outcome look like really good value as well.
