Eintracht Frankfurt v Freiburg Betting Tips [26 May 2020]

A worried Eintracht Frankfurt will look to come out of their losing streak when they host a European-spot ambitious Freiburg at Commerzbank Arena. Before Sunday matches, the hosts are 13th with 28 points, while the visitors are 7th with 37 points.

Eintracht were thrashed 5-2 at Bayern Munich on Saturday despite a second-half fight, making it five losses in a row. They are now without a point since the first week of February and just 10 points since the start of January. A bigger concern is their defence that has shipped 18 goals in their last five league matches. Although 21 of their 28 season points have come at their home venue, the hosts have lost their last two league games. Any hopes of reviving their season will depend on recreating their home form that has seen just 19 of their 49 Bundesliga goals conceded here.

Ahead of Sunday’s games, Freiburg find themselves two points outside the top-six spots although Schalke’s result could potentially change that situation. Regardless, just one win in their last six Bundesliga matches is a cause of concern for Freiburg. They have lost five of their last nine league games and have slipped out of the top-six contention. That includes just one point since resumption, including a narrow 1-0 loss at home to Werder Bremen over last weekend. Freiburg have been economical this season in the Bundesliga at both ends, scoring just 35 and conceding only 37. They remain the sixth-lowest scoring side while being the seventh-best defence in the division. Potentially threatening for them is their away record that has landed just one win in their last 11 Bundesliga road trips.

Eintracht Frankfurt have been finding the going difficult in the recent matches, and have slipped to five consecutive defeats. Although they are five points over the bottom three, losing further ground is a concern. Thankfully, though, they have seen good results at home, and this match could start their revival. Their scoring record at this venue is a good factor to back them in finding at least one goal. Freiburg have won just once in their last 11 Bundesliga away matches, drawing five and losing five along the way. Regardless of the final result, expect a tight game from the visitors, who have been impressive in keeping the goals down to a minimum. Only 14 of Freiburg’s 27 Bundesliga matches have seen over 2.5 total match goals this season, which is worse than all sides bar Wolfsburg at this stage. Regardless, we are backing both teams to score goals in this fixture.
