Eintracht Frankfurt

Eintracht Frankfurt are in real trouble. Four Bundesliga games into 2026, and they have conceded three goals in every single one – it’s a defensive nightmare for a team that should be fighting for stability in the Bundesliga.

The Eagles are winless in five Bundesliga games, drawing three and losing two. Last week’s 1-3 home hammering against TSG Hoffenheim was painful to watch, and the midweek 0-2 UEFA Champions League defeat to Tottenham did nothing to lift their spirits.

Right now, confidence is shot, and Eintracht Frankfurt’s backline looks like it could be torn apart by anyone willing to exploit it.

Conceding at least three goals in their last four Bundesliga matches, Eintracht Frankfurt’s defence is a glaring weakness heading into this clash.

Bayer Leverkusen

Bayer Leverkusen are starting to find some rhythm. After two frustrating Bundesliga losses, they scraped past Werder Bremen 1-0 last week, then absolutely dominated Villarreal 3-0 in the Champions League. That performance showed quality – precise, clinical, and confident.

Sitting sixth in the Bundesliga, Kasper Hjulmand’s side are desperate not to lose sight of the top four. They are looking to string back-to-back Bundesliga wins for only the third time since November, and a vulnerable Eintracht Frankfurt is the perfect opportunity.

However, Bayer Leverkusen’s away form is a bit patchy – three wins, three defeats in their last six trips – but with Eintracht Frankfurt leaking goals left, right, and centre, they should have enough to take all three points.

The Betting Verdict

Bayer Leverkusen have won their last six meetings with Eintracht Frankfurt in all competitions, and I believe the unbeaten run can continue here.

Eintracht Frankfurt have let in plenty of goals in these encounters before, with over 2.5 goals in the last seven matches against Bayer Leverkusen.

Backing either side looks too risky a call for me – both are far too inconsistent right now. Expect another high-scoring game, with both teams likely to find the net.

The Pick :

Eintracht Frankfurt 2-2 Bayer Leverkusen
