Bayern Munich vs Eintracht Frankfurt tips and predictions

Bayern Munich too short in the betting?

There's not much between Bayern Munich and Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga. The hosts are in first place with 36 points, compared to their opponents who are in fourth place on 31 points.

Bayern Munich are odds-on favourites but that short price makes them unbackable. Eintracht Frankfurt don't look likely to get the win but they can make a fist of this. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick and the draw odds available in the match winner market look like pretty good value.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. Creating something of a fortress at home, Bayern Munich have conceded at an average of just 0.5 goals per game over their last 8 matches. Meanwhile Eintracht Frankfurt have only conceded 0.7 goals per game on average in their last 3 away matches.

The sportsbooks' prices indicate that neither side will keep a clean sheet during this match despite the massive favouritism for Bayern Munich. However, the odds-against for the BTTS No looks reasonable here.

Bayern Munich have drawn 5 of their last 14 matches on their own soil, including their most recent match when they drew 1-1 with FC Koln last Tuesday. Eintracht Frankfurt have drawn 2 of their last 3 away matches. Their most recent tied match was when they shared the spoils with Freiburg last Wednesday. This will probably be a close encounter but with no reason to justify a home or away win in the match winner market, the pick has to be with the value available in the draw price.
