On Friday night, Eintracht Frankfurt and Augsburg go head-to-head at the Deutsche Bank Park in the Bundesliga.
Frankfurt’s European spot in dangerA 3-0 defeat at Stuttgart last time out means that the Eagles are winless in their previous four games in the German top-flight.
The home team’s recent poor form has put their hopes of sealing a top-six finish in doubt. Although they are in sixth place in the Bundesliga table, three points ahead of their seventh-place opponents.
Their recent league games have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in six of their last eight matches in the Bundesliga.
Frankfurt is unbeaten in their previous eight home games in the German top-flight. However, four of their last five Bundesliga home matches have ended in draws.
Their recent home games in the German top flight have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last six outings.
Augsburg are in decent formThe Bavarians recorded a 2-0 home win over Union Berlin last time out, which was their fifth victory in their previous seven matches in the Bundesliga.
Their recent good form has put them in touch with the home team in the table, just three points adrift of Frankfurt.
Augsburg’s recent away record in the Bundesliga table is highly inconsistent, as they have won two, lost two and drawn one of their last five Bundesliga games on their travels.
Swiss striker Ermedin Demirovic has been in good scoring form in the visitor’s recent away games, finding the net on three occasions in as many appearances.
Their recent away games in the German top flight have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in their last three outings away from home.
What am I backing?This could be a tight and even encounter. With very little between these two teams in the table, I can see this clash finishing all square.
