H2H: Eintracht Frankfurt vs. Wolfsburg – Prediction (Bundesliga

Preview and Teams Comparison.

Eintracht Frankfurt have won just six of their 34 Bundesliga matches against VfL Wolfsburg (18%, – D11, L17). Against current top-flight sides, Frankfurt only have a worse win percentage against Leipzig (14%).

Eintracht Frankfurt remain one of just two Bundesliga teams unbeaten at home this top-flight campaign (W4, D2), with their last two home league games seeing them win by at least a three-goal margin which boosted their average goals scored per home match to a healthy 2.5. Gonçalo Paciência (FRA) netted the final goal in four of the five Bundesliga matches he’s scored in this term. It’s no surprise then that nine of Frankfurt’s 11 league games have finished with over 2.5 goals. Yet despite those high-scoring fixtures, the hosts have netted the opener just four times this league campaign (three times at home), albeit they won every time they did. Notably, they lost four of the seven occasions that they conceded first (W1, D2).

Frankfurt are yet to see a goalless first half at home this Bundesliga campaign (HT: W3, D1, L2). Wolfsburg have lost their last four competitive games (all by at least a two-goal margin) – they haven’t lost five in a row since April 2004. The last three Bundesliga H2Hs have featured a goal after the 80th minute.

In contrast, Wolfsburg have recorded a league-low three Bundesliga games featuring over 2.5 goals, and none of their matches have produced over 3.5. However, despite possessing a league-low average of just 1.91 total goals per fixture (the division average is 3.22), two of Wolfsburg’s three away league games that didn’t end in a draw finished via a 3-0 scoreline (W1, L1). Wout Weghorst was Wolfsburg’s first goalscorer in the last four league games he’s found the net. Although the visitors are yet to score an away league goal between the 30th-75th minute, they do still possess a combined +4 goal difference in the first and last 15 minutes of their road fixtures, showing that they can start and finish strongly.
