Union Berlin
Union Berlin are stuck in a rough period. Five Bundesliga games without a win tells its own story, with three straight draws followed by back-to-back defeats against Borussia Dortmund (0-3) and TSG Hoffenheim (3-1).
Their performances haven’t been disastrous, but the cutting edge is missing, and defensive mistakes cost them a lot.
At home, Union Berlin are usually tough to beat, especially under the Friday-night lights, but momentum is clearly lacking. Right now, they look like a team searching for rhythm rather than one that can dictate games.
Eintracht Frankfurt
Eintracht Frankfurt arrives in even more turmoil. Winless in six Bundesliga games, they were beaten 1-3 at home by Bayer Leverkusen last weekend, their third defeat in four matches.
Defensive chaos has been the recurring theme this season, with Eintracht Frankfurt conceding at least three goals in each of their last five Bundesliga outings.
A new era begins with Albert Riera taking over after Dino Toppmöller’s dismissal, but immediate improvement may be difficult.
Eintracht Frankfurt are winless in four away games (two draws, two defeats), and they’ll also be without key midfielder Ellyes Skhiri, who is suspended after his red card last weekend.
Goals have been flowing in their matches, though — over 2.5 goals have landed in each of Eintracht Frankfurt’s last five Bundesliga matches.
The Betting Verdict
Both Union Berlin and Eintracht Frankfurt are among the six Bundesliga sides yet to win since the winter break, and that shows in their current confidence levels.
Union Berlin could jump over Eintracht Frankfurt at mid-table with a win by two or more goals, while a victory for Eintracht Frankfurt would be the perfect way to kick off Albert Riera’s coaching tenure.
Eintracht Frankfurt are winless in their last four Bundesliga meetings with Union Berlin, and with both defences struggling badly, this has all the makings of a tense but open contest. The quality gap between the sides is minimal, and mistakes are likely at both ends.
I believe the best betting angle here is to back both teams to score, with goals likely in a clash where neither side looks capable of keeping things tight.
