Eintracht Frankfurt return to Bundesliga duty after their Champions League elimination, and now they must respond immediately as they host a Wolfsburg side desperate to stop their decline.
Eintracht still unreliable at the back
Frankfurt showed once again in midweek that defensive stability is not their strong suit this season. Even in matches where they control possession, they tend to leave too many spaces and allow their opponents clear situations. At home they remain dangerous in attack, but their defensive inconsistencies make almost every match more open than it should be. This is precisely the type of weakness that can give a struggling opponent a chance.
Wolfsburg searching for stability under the new coach
The "Greens" began the new coaching era with a 1:3 defeat to Leverkusen, and although the result was expected, it clearly showed how much work still lies ahead. Wolfsburg urgently need to stabilise defensively - conceding easy goals has been their biggest problem during the crisis. Still, they have enough quality in attack to hurt shaky defences, and Frankfurt’s vulnerabilities give them legitimate hope of finding the net again.
Prediction: BTTS – yes
Both teams enter this match with defensive issues and attacking potential, a combination that often leads to open, chance-filled encounters. Frankfurt rarely keep clean sheets at home, and Wolfsburg’s offensive players should be able to exploit the hosts’ recurring mistakes. At the same time, Eintracht’s attacking prowess should guarantee opportunities of their own against a Wolfsburg defence still searching for structure. All signs point toward both teams scoring.
