On Sunday afternoon, Eintracht Frankfurt will look to consolidate their position in the Bundesliga top-four when they host Koln at the Commerzbank-Arena.
The home side is on a red hot streak of form that has moved them into the Champions League spots in the Bundesliga.
The Eagles are currently fourth, a point ahead of fifth-place Bayer Leverkusen in the race for a top-four finish this season. They are also just two points behind third-place Wolfsburg.
A key to Frankfurt’s recent good results has been in prolific form of Portuguese forward Andre Silva, who has scored 17 league goals this season. The former Milan star has been particularly potent in recent league outings, scoring eight times in his last six Premier League appearances.
Adi Hutter’s team have been in good form at home in the Bundesliga of late, as they are unbeaten in 11 matches. Frankfurt have also won their last three Bundesliga games on home soil.
Unsurprisingly, the visitors have been prolific in front of goal at home in the Bundesliga, having scored over 2.5 goals in their last four matches.
Koln have been in good form of late, recording three wins in their last four Bundesliga games. A 2-1 win at Monchengladbach last time out means that the Billy Goats have recorded two straight league wins.
Midfielder Elvis Rexhbecaj has been key in Koln’s recent good form, scoring three goals in his last two Bundesliga matches.
Koln’s recent away form in the German top-flight has been highly inconsistent, although they have only lost two of their last nine games on their travels in the Bundesliga. Their away games have certainly been entertaining, with over 2.5 goals scored in their previous four away matches in the league.
Forebet predicts that Eintracht Frankfurt will record a victory in a high-scoring clash to enhance their chances of a top-four spot.
