Bundesliga: Wolfsburg vs. Eintracht Frankfurt Betting Preview, Odds and Prediction

The Wolves surprised the world this mid-week once they demolished Bayer in Leverkusen, this keeping the No.6 place, which leads to the international competition. On the other side, Eintracht is on a free fall, and if they continue to post results like this one, moving to the second tier will be inevitable.

Preview

Wolfsburg (-105) posted two wins and a loss since the restart. Interestingly, both those wins came on the road. The first was in Augsburg, 1-2, and the other the above-mentioned in Leverkusen, 1-4.

Bayer was an absolute favorite in that match, not losing for 12 straight contests. On top of that, they needed three points to keep the spot, which leads to the Champions League. Yet, the Wolves tore apart their defense, dominating at Bay Arena as just a few teams did in the last several years.

What could be problematic is the fact that they didn’t win for three straight at home, and Wolfsburg’s players have some kind of a mental barrier.

Eintracht (+260) has five in a row without a win, and after four losses, they posted a draw in the last one against Freiburg. But we can say that not winning this one was equal to losing it. The Eagles are now just two points away from Fortuna and the relegation zone, and the way they play, it is quite possible to slip below the red line any time soon.

The team from Frankfurt has one of the worst defenses in the entire Bundesliga, with 52 conceded goals so far. When looking at only the games on the road, only Mainz and Koln have a worse back line, but there aren’t any teams with fewer goals scored, 13. It is why this team collected just 7 points, league-low on the road.

Latest News

Josuha Guilavogui is doubtful, but it seems that he won’t play. Admir Mehmedi is out because of Achilles, Mamoudou Karamoko injured his meniscus, Paulo Otavio, William and Yannick Gerhardt are also out for the hosts.

Marco Russ is questionable for the guests, while Goncalo Paciencia is out. Stefan Ilsanker is suspended because of the cards.

Head to Head Matches

The Wolves took all three points from Frankfurt in the first leg this season. The result was 0-2, and the scorers for the visitors in that one were Weghorst and Joao Victor. That was the first game after four in a row in which one team didn’t net.

Wolfsburg will have an additional motive to win this match. They couldn’t win the last two at home against this rival.

Prediction

Wolfsburg needs this win, and they play at home against the worst road-team in the entire Bundesliga, so that is pretty much the whole case. Despite the fact that Eintracht too has its back against the wall, we can’t see them winning here or at least taking one point.

The Eagles are bad, and it seems that the chemistry inside the locker room is not good at all. We are backing up the home team to win, with the odds at -105. It is a superb offer, and we will take it gladly.

Pick: Wolfsburg to win -105
