EINTRACHT FRANKFURT – UNION BERLIN| Saturday 3.30pm
Union Berlin is first in the table. Which is sensational, of course. But Bayern Munich’s bad moment and the fact that Borussia Dortmund seem to have a curse with the first place in the table, has allowed the team coached by the Swiss Fischer to enjoy two weeks of work looking down on everyone. A situation that obviously pleases in the German capital, even if, against Eintracht, it will be difficult to win.
In fact, there is a clear feeling that the hosts are favourites and can take a prestigious victory against the current leaders, but also a crucial one, above all, we would say, for their own ranking. Eintracht, in fact, have a better squad on paper than Union and perhaps now is the time to take advantage of it.
The Eintracht-Union prediction
A victory for Eintracht Frankfurt could fit. And how. The team that won the Europa League has what it takes to stop the race of the leaders. A match with at least three goals in total, of course, and with the feeling that both can find the way to the goal.
