FC Bayern Munich vs Eintracht Frankfurt Betting Tips and Predictions

Bayern produced a workmanlike display grinding out a 1-0 win against FC Cologne in their last Bundesliga match before the International break. With this win Bayern Munich were able to maintain their five-point advantage over second-placed Borussia Dortmund. The Bavarians have so far won 12 of their 13 home matches in the league this season and will be keen to extend that impressive record as they head towards an unprecedented fourth consecutive title. The success of Bayern Munich this season in the Bundesliga has been helped along by the formidable attacking duo of Robert Lewandowski and Thomas Muller. Lewandowski is the first non-German player to score 25 Bundesliga goals in a single season for Bayern Munich and he’ll be looking to increase his tally against a weakened Eintracht Frankfurt lineup.

Frankfurt, meanwhile, cannot afford to drop any more points as they seek to avoid relegation. New coach – and former Bayern player – Niko Kovac earned his first win against Hannover 96 last time out, which kept Frankfurt within touching distance of a handful of other sides scrapping for survival. They stand 1 from bottom (seventeenth place) with 27 points, but more significantly, they are only 1 point behind thirteenth placed Darmstadt 98 who stand 3 places above the relegation zone.

Guardiola’s Munich have earned 52 of a possible 54 points against the teams currently occupying places eight to eighteenth in the table. That equates to 17 victories and 1 draw, with the only points dropped being that goalless draw against Frankfurt in Matchday 11. Despite Frankfurt succesfully holding off Bayern Munich earlier in the season, their form has deteriorated and they will be fielding a weakened lineup on Saturday due to a few vital injuries. Frankfurt also have the worst away record in the Bundesliga this season (with two wins, three draws and eight defeats from 13 games). Combining this with the fact that Bayern Munich have not conceded against Frankfurt in their last seven meetings and they will be looking to set a new record (no team in Bundesliga history has ever gone eight straight games without conceding against the same opponent), Bayern Munich will be looking to win to nil. Following the above analysis and the statistic shown below. Bayern Munich to win 3-0 at 11/2 seems likely for this fixture.
