On Sunday afternoon, Borussia Dortmund and Eintracht Frankfurt clash at Signal Iduna Park in a Bundesliga game that could affect the European race.
Dortmund through to the Champions League last eightBVB recorded a 2-0 midweek win over PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League last-16 second leg to progress to the quarter-finals with a 3-1 aggregate victory.
The win last time out means that Edin Terzic’s team has recorded three straight victories in all competitions, having scored at least two goals in all three of the recent wins.
BVB has been highly potent in the Bundesliga lately, scoring at least two goals in four of their last five matches in the German top flight.
A 3-2 defeat by Hoffenheim in their last home game in the Bundesliga ended a three-game unbeaten run on home soil.
Dortmund have remained consistent in front of goal recently in the league at Signal Iduna Park, scoring at least two goals in five of their last six matches.
Frankfurt is unbeaten in five Bundesliga gamesThe Eagles made it five games unbeaten in the Bundesliga last time out by recording a 3-1 home win over Hoffenheim. The game saw Frankfurt score at least two goals for the fourth straight game in the German top-flight.
Frankfurt’s recent stellar Bundesliga form has the Eagles in the European spots, seven points clear of seventh-place Hoffenheim. However, they are seven points adrift of the hosts, who occupy the final Champions League spot in the German top-flight.
Eintracht have had a mixed recent away record in the Bundesliga. A 2-1 win at Heidenheim in their last away outing ended a three-game winless run on their travels.
The visitors have been leaky in defence on their travels in the Bundesliga, conceding at least two goals in six of their last eight matches.
What am I backing?The pair are in great form, and this could be a highly entertaining clash between two really exciting teams. I believe this will be a high-scoring clash, so the bet I am backing is over 2.5 goals scored.
