Eintracht Frankfurt vs FC Augsburg Prediction & Preview

Preview

This Friday, the 19th of April, promises an intriguing Bundesliga clash as Eintracht Frankfurt welcome FC Augsburg to the Commerzbank-Arena for what is set to be a thrilling encounter in the 30th round of Germany's top-flight football. Positioned closely on the table with Frankfurt sitting at 6th with 42 points and Augsburg not far behind in 7th with 39 points, this match could play a crucial role in shaping their seasons.

Under the guidance of Dino Toppmöller, Eintracht Frankfurt has had a mixed bag of results recently. Their last outing saw them fall to a disappointing defeat away against VfB Stuttgart, losing by three goals to nil. This result is part of a wider form pattern that includes just one win from their last five matches alongside two losses and two draws.

FC Augsburg, managed by Jess Thorup, comes into this game with better recent momentum compared to their hosts. They secured an impressive victory at home against FC Union Berlin in their previous match - winning comfortably with two goals and keeping a clean sheet. Their form over the last five matches shows more consistency and promise than Frankfurt's: three wins, one loss, and one draw have seen them take ten points from fifteen possible.

Looking back at head-to-head encounters between these two teams reveals an evenly matched history: out of their last five meetings across all competitions, each team has won once while sharing spoils on three occasions. However, it's worth noting that when they last faced off earlier this season on December 3rd at WWK Arena; FC Augsburg edged out Eintracht Frankfurt with a scoreline of 2-1.
