Eintracht Frankfurt vs Union Berlin Match Preview

Eintracht Frankfurt had an amazing performance in their mid-week home game against Salzburg for the Europa League. They were better in the field since the beginning of the game and till the 53rd minute, they were already a clear lead by 4-0. The guests found a goal towards the dying minutes of the game, but even so, a 3 goal difference could hardly be overturned in the second leg by Salzburg.

In the previous round of the Bundesliga, Eintracht Frankfurt faced a heavy 4-0 defeat in Westphalia, against Dortmund. In tonight's game I expect some kind of rotation in A. Hütter's squad, because of the recent game in Salzburg three days ago.

In the previous round, Union Berlin lost to Leverkusen 2-3 at home. In fact, the decisive goal came at the added time by the guests. After this result, Union Berlin maintained their 12th place in the standings, with a total of 26 points.

Undoubtedly, U. Fischer's team lacks experience at the top level. Their away performances are pretty modest, in fact, they managed to win only 2 out of the 11 rounds (2-2-7) so far, which is the worst away record in the Bundesliga, something that keeps Union Berlin at the lower places of the table. Unavailable is C. Trimel due to his suspension.

Eintracht Frankfurt is quite strong when playing at home and definitely can win against the mediocre Union Berlin. I think this match can lead to a comfortable victory for Eintracht Frankfurt, taking the lead early in the game, in order to lower their pace for their upcoming Europa League match on Thursday.
