Bayern Munich vs Eintracht Frankfurt: Match Prediction
Eintracht Frankfurt's last outing has injected optimism into the hearts of the club's supporters. However, as the next match approaches, it is quickly starting to fade. It is one thing to shut out Borussia Monchengladbach, who are fairly modest in attack, but doing the same against Bayern Munich is almost impossible. The priority here is to try to avoid a rout, which will be very difficult given the opponent's form. Besides, trips to Munich bring back painful memories for Eintracht Frankfurt. The team have lost 14 of the previous 16 head-to-head meetings on Bayern Munich's pitch, with 10 of those defeats ending in heavy scorelines.
Vincent Kompany's men have won by a margin smaller than one match only once at home in this league campaign. And Bayern Munich's opponent on that occasion was Borussia Dortmund. It is hard to see how Eintracht Frankfurt will contain such an attack: they may have kept a clean sheet last round, but Borussia Monchengladbach still had enough chances to score. Bayern Munich, by contrast, will take their numerous opportunities with ease.
Prediction: Bayern Munich (-2)
