Frankfurt are in 11th position and their season is done. They can not reach a top spot in the league anymore and also relegation is not something they have to worry about. Frankfurt got 41 points in the Bundesliga this season with 34 scored goals and 41 allowed goals which brings them an average of 1.03 scored goals and 1.24 conceded goals per match in a total of 33 matches this season. This is their last game of the season and I don’t think it will end well.
Frankfurt are in terrible form lately (L L L W L) with only one win over Augsburg (14) which should be a sure win for them. Frankfurt managed to score only 6 goals in their last 5 games and conceded 11 and we can see that in these games their scoring average is almost the same but they conceded 2.2 goals in the last 5 which is almost a goal more than their season average. Conclusion is, terrible form lately. The only thing that could save them this game is their form at home, but that form is not much better. Despite the fact that they did lose only one game in the last 5 at home, still a close look at these games shows nothing to be proud of. Frankfurt only scored 5 goals in these last 5 (from which 3 against Augsburg) at home and the only positive thing is that they only conceded 5 as well.
Frankfurt are missing a pretty big number of players. Vallejo (24), Hasebe (22), Mascarell (28), Meier (20), Rebic (24) are all out. The first named players are struggling with injury’s and Rebic is ruled out for this one. As you know from me I always tell the goals the missing players produced together and in this case that is 8 goals of their total 34 goals this season. Frankfurt lost the first game against Leipzig with 3-0, producing only 3 shots on target and a possession of 34%.
Possible line-up Frankfurt:
3-4-2-1
Hradecky; Oczipka, Abraham, Hector; Tawatha, Gacinovic, Chandler, Varela, Fabián, Hrgota; Seferovic
KEYSTATS:
♣ Frankfurt are in terrible form
♣ Frankfurt are dealing with quite a lot of injury’s
♣ Last game ended up 3-0 Leipzig
Leipzig have had a stunning season. The lads of Leipzig will end in second place in the Bundesliga with at least 2 points ahead of Dortmund and they will end the season in style. Leipzig gathered 66 points this season (25 more than Frankfurt), scored 64 goals and conceded 37. It gives them an average of 1.94 goals scored per game and 1.12 goals conceded per game. Their recent form is decent (L W D D W) with the latest loss of course the one against Bayern in a real thriller. Leipzig lost 4-5 after being 4-2 ahead against the Champions of Germany and in my opinion they showed the better football during most parts of the game. Leipzig have been showing that they score quite easy in the last 5 games with 13 goals scored and 7 conceded. So their scoring average has been 2.6 per game in the last 5 and they conceded only 1.4 per game (including the game against Bayern).
Leipzig are almost complete for this one, only player that is missing will be Orban (28), he only produced 3 goals but is an important player in the Leipzig defense. Still Leipzig has enough players on their bench to replace him so I do not see this as a problem. Leipzig will end their season in style and will grab a last win here against Frankfurt.
Possible line-up Leipzig
4-4-2
Gulácsi; Halstenberg, Compper, Upamecano, Schmitz; Forsberg, Sabitzer, Keita, Demme; Poulsen, Werner
♣ Leipzig are in decent form last weeks
♣ Leipzig is almost complete for this one
Eintracht F. vs Leipzig prediction: 2 @ 1,87
