Our predictions for RB Leipzig vs Eintracht Frankfurt
Match Prediction: RB Leipzig 2-1 Eintracht Frankfurt
RB Leipzig's recent form suggests a team with strong momentum, having secured three wins in their last five matches. Their ability to score convincingly, as seen in the 6-0 victory over FC Augsburg, indicates a potent attack that could challenge Eintracht Frankfurt's defence. The absence of Assan Ouédraogo and potentially Yan Diomande might slightly disrupt their usual lineup, but the predicted 4-3-3 formation should still provide ample attacking options.
Eintracht Frankfurt, on the other hand, have shown resilience with three wins and two draws in their recent outings. Their ability to score in every game, including a thrilling 4-3 win against FC Köln, highlights their offensive capabilities. However, Leipzig's forwards could exploit their defensive vulnerabilities. The predicted 4-2-3-1 formation might help them maintain a solid midfield presence while still posing a threat on the counter.
