Union Berlin vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction & Betting tips
Union Berlin and Eintracht Frankfurt are the first two teams to compete in this round of the Bundesliga. What can we expect from this game?
Union Berlin:
For Union Berlin, the victory over Borussia Dortmund (3-1) is the provisional high point after the promotion from the 2. Bundesliga in the middle of this year. For the rest, those claimants mainly played matches to be forgotten quickly. Often the team was unable to cope with the opponents. This was also the case last weekend. The defeat suffered on a visit to Bayer Leverkusen was not too big (2-0), but Union had nothing to say on the field. Opportunities were hardly created there.
“Frankfurt often plays at a fast pace, and they are strong in the changeover,” coach Urs Fischer analyzed at the weekly press conference. Incidentally, the club leadership this week showed confidence in the coach, as his expiring contract was extended. Fischer cannot count on Sebastian Polter in the match against Frankfurt, who received the red card in last week’s match.
Eintracht Frankfurt:
This season, Eintracht Frankfurt faces the great challenge of continuing the good performance of the previous year. For the time being, the Hessen team has noticed that this is not easy. Last week, Die SGE lost the first group match in the Europa League, against an Arsenal that was not in the strongest line-up (0-3). On Sunday, Frankfurt had a hard time in the home match against Dortmund. On the basis of fighting spirit and willpower, another point was taken (2-2).
“In my opinion, we are currently getting too many goals against,” coach Adi Hütter stated during the preparatory press conference. ‘We have to defend better when we lose the ball. We are working on that, “says Hütter. The trainer has an almost completely fit group at his disposal. He therefore has the luxury problem of having to choose between players. Perhaps Bas Dost can start in the base in this match. Jonathan de Guzman should probably settle for a spare role.
