Eintracht Frankfurt - Dusseldorf Prediction, Picks and Tips
The 8th round of the Bundesliga season 2018/19 will open on Friday evening in the Commerzbank-Arena: The Frankfurt Eintracht receives promoted Fortuna Dusseldorf. After a rather mediocre start of the Frankfurt Eagles under the new coach Adi Hütter, the Hessians are slowly getting better and better rolling. Eintracht won all the last three official games. In the case of the Fortunen, however, the tendency is downward. From the first four matchdays the climber had conceded only one bust. But now with three defeats in a row Dusseldorf has slipped from ninth to 17th place. The direct comparison against Eintracht promises little improvement. No other current Bundesliga club has Frankfurt as good as Fortuna. 22 of the 44 games against Fortuna won the Eintracht. In total there were 54 duels between Frankfurt and Dusseldorf. With 26 wins to 13 defeats the balance clearly speaks for concord. In Frankfurt, Fortuna won only twice. The last victory in the Main metropolis managed F95 in January 1980. The betting base presents its preliminary report to the Bundesliga match Frankfurt vs.. Düsseldorf and has found great odds for the tip "home win".
The start to the new season had certainly not gone according to plan with the 0-5 defeat in the Supercup against Bayern and the Cup in the first round in Ulm for the Frankfurt. The Eintracht had to cope before the season not only the departure of successful coach Niko Kovac, but also replace high performers such as Hradecky, Boateng, Wolf and Mascarell. But now the situation has improved significantly in the Hesse. In the league you have gained by two victories in a row clearly air down. In the Europa League Frankfurt beat the two top international teams Marseille (2: 1) and Lazio (4: 1). Also the offensive for players like Haller, Jovic and Rebic got under way and shows above all very effectively. In the past three competitive games Eintracht scored ten goals. The defense around national team keeper Kevin Trapp is better again. The goalkeeper loaned by PSG gives the team a lot more security. Even from a minority as in Marseille or in Hoffenheim, Eintracht can not be shocked. In both cases you could win the game with one less player. Hütter usually puts the team in 3-5-2 or 3-4-3. In a formation with a three / five-string, the team felt most comfortable recently. Against the Fortuna Frankfurt must give up after his yellow-red card to runner-up Ante Rebic. Abraham could return to the starting eleven after injury. Torro is also back in training after the death of his brother.
The 0: 2 on Schalke before the international break was the third Bundesliga defeat in a row for the promoted. With the 0: 0 at the VfB Düsseldorf waits even for four Erstliga games on a victory. In the last two games the Fortuna remained without their own goal. The 0: 3 defeat in Nuremberg was the first weak away appearance of Fortuna this season. In Leipzig (1: 1) and in Stuttgart (0: 0) could convince the Dusseldorf on the other hand quite convincing. From many sides, the Düsseldorfer and coach Friedhelm Funkel have received praise for their achievements. But the points are missing and so is the Fortuna with five points only on 17th place on Schalke was the promoted in the first half, the superior team, but could not be rewarded by a lack of opportunity exploitation. Fortuna boss Robert Schäfer would like a good base for the league to like to collect 15 to 17 points until the winter break. The stakes of Gießelmann and winger Davor Lovren in Frankfurt are questionable. Definitely missing are Diego Contento, Andre Hoffmann and Raphael Wolf.
