THE PREDICTION
With three consecutive wins to their name and a whopping nine goals scored across those three matches, Eintracht Frankfurt are riding the crest of a wave and have no reason to fear second-placed Borussia Dortmund with home advantage in their favour. However, Dortmund like their opponents are an extremely strong unit from an offensive perspective with striker Erling Haaland leading the line. The Norwegian superstar bagged a brace against Eintracht Frankfurt in the reverse fixture between these two sides, which ended in a 5-2 win for BVB. A similarly entertaining contest is expected here at Deutsche Bank Park as both teams prioritise attacking potency over defensive stability. Therefore, back not only over 2.5 goals in this one, but also both teams to score.
