Eintracht Frankfurt vs Schalke Predictions

• Eintracht Frankfurt are unbeaten at Commerzbank Arena this season (W2, D5) and overcame third-placed Bayer Leverkusen 2-1 in their last home game.
• That result was one of three successive league victories for Die Adler who are seeking to notch a fourth win on the bounce this Sunday.
• Second-bottom Schalke are without an away win this term, drawing two and losing five of their seven games on the road.

Schalke Joy to be Cut Short in Frankfurt

Christian Gross oversaw his first win as Schalke manager last weekend; however, the Swiss’ joy looks set to be short lived with Eintracht Frankfurt strongly fancied to claim three points at Commerzbank Arena this Sunday.

Schalke finally secured their first league victory of the campaign on Matchday 15 and they did so in emphatic style as a superb hat-trick from American striker Matt Hoppe spearheaded a 4-0 thrashing of Hoffenheim at VELTINS-Arena.

There will be renewed hope in Gelsenkirchen that Schalke can start moving clear of danger with their new manager at the helm, though one result is hardly enough to suggest that Die Konigsblauen have turned the corner.

Schalke have been woeful on the whole this season, typified by their performances on the road which have generated just two points from seven outings.

They look vulnerable here against a thriving Frankfurt side who are unbeaten at home this season (W2, D5) and amidst a three match winning streak in Bundesliga.

Die Adler were firmly put in their place by Bayer Leverkusen in the DFB Pokal on Tuesday evening (4-1) but that doesn’t deter us from recommending a three point wager on Adi Hutter’s men this weekend, particularly as they’ve won five of their last seven encounters against Schalke at home (D2).

The hosts have yet to keep a clean sheet at Commerzbank Area this term so Schalke could well bag themselves a goal, but ultimately Frankfurt should triumph fairly cosily here and 3-1 is our tip in the correct score market.
