Augsburg vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction: Can Eintracht Frankfurt continue their amazing form?

With Eintracht Frankfurt winning and scoring goals in all competitions they are competing in, we expect this to continue. Their qualification to the next stage of the champions league will be a major confidence boost to the team. Augsburg however, have not won any of their last four matches played. Will the Augsburg Arena coupled with fatigue due to the midweek Champion league match against Sporting provide them with the much-needed win? Not likely but time will tell. 

Augsburg

Augsburg have begun scoring goals but are also conceding goals. This was evident in the recent 2-1 loss to fellow strugglers Stuttgart and conceding goals to draw 3-3 with Leipzig after taking the lead at various stages in the match. If the whole team can help the defence, Augsburg have the potential of at least drawing the match considering the midweek exertion of Eintracht Frankfurt.  

Eintracht Frankfurt
