Eintracht Frankfurt vs Mönchengladbach - 16/05/2020
2817
As the Bundesliga resumes on Saturday the 16th of May we have some great games to look forward to including the match between Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Mönchengladbach. This game will be played at the Commerzbank-Arena but there will be no fans present to cheer on the teams as all matches are being played behind closed doors.
Eintracht Frankfurt begin the weekend in 12th place in the Bundesliga on 28 points. It is fair to say they have not hit the heights of last season and if they are to qualify for European competition, they are going to have to put a strong run together. Prior to the suspension of the league due to coronavirus, Eintracht Frankfurt won only one of their last 5 matches in all competitions.
The victory came in the DFB Pokal and Eintracht Frankfurt suffered a very disappointing 3-0 home defeat at the hands of Basel in the Europa League in their most recent outing. They have lost each of their last 3 Bundesliga matches including heavy defeats at Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen. Sandwiched between those two matches was a 2-1 home loss at the hands of Union Berlin.
Trends show that Eintracht Frankfurt usually see plenty of goals in their home games. In 16 of Eintracht Frankfurt's 19 most recent home games there have been over 2.5 goals scored. In addition, Eintracht Frankfurt have scored at least two goals in 13 of their last 16 home matches in all competitions.
Borussia Mönchengladbach are currently in fourth place in the Bundesliga on 49 points. They occupy the final Champions League qualifying position but will be hoping to push Bayern Munich and the other teams above them close for the title this season.
Borussia Mönchengladbach have been difficult to beat in the Bundesliga and have lost only one of their last 7 games in the league. The defeat came at home against Borussia Dortmund in a match they were hoping to win against one of the other teams battling for the title. Away Bundesliga form shows just one defeat in their last 5 games and Borussia Mönchengladbach have won each of their last 2 on the road against Fortuna Dusseldorf and Augsburg.
Trends show both teams have scored in Borussia Mönchengladbach's last 7 Bundesliga matches and they have conceded at least 2 goals in 5 of their last 7 away league games.
Team news and Eintracht Frankfurt have doubts over the fitness of Erik Durm and Gonçalo Paciência. Bas Dost should be fit and the Dutch striker will take his place up-front.
Borussia Mönchengladbach are definitely without the injured duo of Denis Zakaria and Fabian Johnson. Florian Neuhaus returns after suspension plus Tony Jantschke and Ramy Bensebaini are available in defence.
We should see plenty of attacking play and goalscoring opportunities in this match. Expect to see both teams find the back of the net and over 2.5 goals scored. However, it is the away team who have more to play for plus have good form on their side, so Borussia Mönchengladbach should take maximum points.
