Frankfurt vs Bayern Munich prediction

Eintracht Frankfurt will look to continue their terrific start to this Bundesliga season when they welcome league leaders Bayern Munich to the Deutsche Bank Park (Frankfurt) in a top-of-the-table clash this weekend. After losing 2-0 to Dortmund on the opening day of the season, Frankfurt have railed off 4 straight wins including a 4-2 win away at newly promoted side Holstein Kiel last weekend to move up to 2nd on the log with 12 points, just one shy of the Bavarians. A win here will see them swap places with the visitors and given their recent record against them, this is certainly not outside the realm of possibility

Bayern Munich’s sizzling start to the season has fizzled out in the last week. After being held to a 1-1 draw by Leverkusen, last weekend, they followed that up with a 1-0 stunning loss away at English outfit Aston Villa in the 2nd round of Group Phase matches in the new Champions League format. This was not just Vincent Kompany’s first loss as coach of Bayern but also the team’s first group-stage defeat in 42 matches. They will look to regroup quickly when they resume action on the domestic front with this tricky trip to the West of Germany.

This match has all the hallmarks of a thriller. It is not just a top-of-the-table clash but one featuring teams that have both had terrific starts to the domestic season with a bucketload of goals, There is also the little matter of Frankfurt being a bogey team for Bayern in recent years.

Statistics for Frankfurt vs Bayern Munich Prediction

Team News Frankfurt

• Golden Boy: Frankfurt’s Omar Marmoush, has been terrific upfront to start the season. He is at the top of the scoring charts right now with 6 goals to his credit. They will be counting on him to step up here
• Huge Setback: The early-season injury to captain and first-choice goalkeeper Kevin Trapp has forced coach Toppmoller to use backup Brazilian keeper Kauã Santos to stand in for him. He will need to be at his best to withstand a barrage of attacks expected from the Bavarian giants
• Injury List: Die Adler will be without the services of Danish striker Oscar Hojlund (broken ankle) and youngster Mehdi Loune, who is targeting a return at the end of October from a cruciate ligament injury.

Team News Bayern Munich

• Injuries: Sacha Boey and Josip Stanisic (both knee) and summer signing Hiroki Ito (foot) are still unavailable. Arijon Ibrahimovic could return in early October
• Back in Goal: Manuel Neuer started in both the Saturday match and the midweek UCL encounter, having overcome a thigh problem; He is expected to fully assume his number 1 goalkeeping duties
• Midfield Maestro: Joshua Kimmich has been bossing the midfield this season and was almost single-handedly responsible for derailing Leverkusen’s famed midfield duo of  Granit Xhaka and Robert Andrich. He is expected to continue as the man in the centre here
• Defense Duo: Kompany has had a lot of stability with the pairing of Dayot Upamecano and Minjae Kim in central defence. Their flexibility opens up a lot of options for Kompany who even tried out a hybrid three-man defence for the 2-0 win over Freiburg on Matchday 2
