Eintracht Frankfurt vs Dortmund Prediction & Betting Tips (17 January)

We will undoubtedly have to count on Eintracht Frankfurt in the race for the Champions League or even for the podium this season! 3rd at the start of this 18th day, the Diva Capricieuse had an excellent first half of the exercise, regularly displaying a very interesting quality of play which allowed her to be ambitious. After having experienced a complicated month of December, the Eagles have perfectly negotiated their return to competition in recent days by winning against Sankt Pauli 0-1 then against Friborg on Tuesday evening 4-1. Conversely, we will start to seriously looking down on Borussia Dortmund who are far from meeting expectations this year. Far too average, especially on the road, Nuri Sahin's players ended the year 2024 with a victory against Wolfsburg 1-3.

But their debut in 2025 quickly turned sour. Dominated at home by Bayer Leverkusen 2-3 last Friday, the Borussen then had to lose on Tuesday evening against one of the relegated players, Holstein Kiel, without possible challenge 4-2. As a result, they have lost contact with the European places and now find themselves in the soft underbelly of the ranking.

Frankfurt will play this match without replacement defender Amenda who is still injured. Not on the sheet against Fribourg, former Parisian Dina Edimbe should this time apply for a place in the group. Former Ligue 1 players such as Trapp (ex PSG), defender Theate (ex Rennes) and midfielder Skhiri (ex Montpellier) should start. Still on cloud nine despite the winter break, the Egyptian Marmousch (15 goals, 9 assists decisive in the Bundesliga) panics the counters with another goal scored and 2 assists delivered this week. The ex Parisian Hugo Ekitike (goals, 3 assists) also found the fault Tuesday evening against Fribourg.

For Borussia, defender Süle and young Filippo Mané will still have to give up. Absent Tuesday evening, the talented but fragile Adeyemi is expected for this match while the precious winger Malen (3 goals in Bundesliga) could have signed with Aston Villa. Note the return from suspension of midfielder Gross who was absent in the last two matches. At the forefront, we will undoubtedly find the former Rennais Guirassy (7 goals) who now shares the head of the scorers ranking of this team with the Englishman Gittens (7 goals).
