Borussia Dortmund vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction & Preview

Preview

This Sunday, football fans are in for a Bundesliga treat as Borussia Dortmund welcome Eintracht Frankfurt to SIGNAL IDUNA PARK for what promises to be an electrifying match in the 26th round of the competition. Both teams are eyeing crucial points at this stage of the season, with Dortmund sitting at 4th place with 47 points and Frankfurt not far behind in 6th place with 40 points.

Dortmund's recent form has been commendable, securing three wins, one loss, and one draw from their last five matches. Their latest victory came against PSV at home with a comfortable scoreline of 2-0. On the other hand, Eintracht Frankfurt has also shown resilience and competitive spirit; their last game ended in a triumphant 3-1 win over TSG Hoffenheim.

When looking back at their head-to-head encounters, Dortmund clearly has had the upper hand against Frankfurt with four wins out of their last five meetings - showcasing dominance that they would surely like to extend. However, it's worth noting that their most recent clash ended in a high-scoring draw (3-3) at Commerzbank-Arena on October 29th, suggesting that both teams have what it takes to find the back of the net.

On average goals scored per game this season paints an interesting picture; Dortmund scores around two goals per match while conceding just under one goal on average - even more impressive when playing at home where they score an average of 2.5 goals per game. Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt manages an average of roughly 1.7 goals scored and concedes about twice as much when playing away from home.

Bet

Given both teams' propensity for scoring and considering Dortmund’s slightly superior form along with being favorites according to odds (1.61), betting on a Home Win seems like a logical choice here but cannot ignore how prolific these sides have been upfront suggests another potentially high-scoring affair is on cards.

However, if looking for value combined with likelihood based purely on statistics provided – "Over 2.5 Goals" could be considered as your recommended bet given its odds stand at respectable value (1.53). This selection is supported by both clubs’ scoring averages across all fixtures this season coupled with past encounters particularly recalling their thrilling six-goal thriller last time out indicating another action-packed matchup could very well be anticipated.
