Stuttgart-Eintracht Frankfurt is a match valid for the 29th day of the Bundesliga and is played Saturday at 6:30 p.m.: live TV, probable formations, predictions.
Stuttgart is now one step closer to a historic goal, unthinkable at the beginning of the season: qualification for the next edition of the Champions League. The dream, for the Swabians, is about to become a reality, and the victory achieved a week ago in the direct clash with Borussia Dortmund (0-1) sounds like a sentence.
A goal by the usual Serhou Guirassy – there are 24 goals scored in the league by the Guinean center forward, among the most beautiful surprises of this Bundesliga – allowed the red and whites to collect a crucial success, against a direct competitor, and to widen the gap against the pursuers, including Borussia itself. Stuttgart, thanks to the Signal Iduna Park win, joined Bayern Munich on 60 points and shares second place with the Bavarians. And they are again seven points behind the “pair” formed by Leipzig-Dortmund: with six days to go, only a vertical collapse would prevent Sebastian Hoeness’s team from retaining a place among the Bundesliga’s top four.
The Swabians this weekend will face Eintracht Frankfurt knowing the results of the others, and that may not necessarily be an advantage.
In any case, they will try to extend the positive streak that has been going on in the Bundesliga since even mid-January (eight wins and two draws since then). On the other hand, the ups and downs continue for Eintracht, which in the last two rounds has not gone beyond two draws with Union Berlin and Werder Bremen and has been missing the appointment with the three points for exactly one month. Performance that is far from exciting, however, of which the pursuers have not taken advantage: Dino Toppmoller’s men are still firmly in sixth place.
The prediction
Since 2020 whenever Stuttgart and Eintracht Frankfurt have met both have always gone for a goal: the “no goal” sign has not come out since 2019. For the guests, however, it will not be easy this time to pierce a defense that has remained unbeaten in three of the last four matches. Stuttgart is slightly favored for the three points.
