Eintracht Frankfurt vs Bayern Munich prediction, preview, team news and more | Bundesliga 2021-22
Bundesliga league leaders Bayern Munich will take on Eintracht Frankfurt away from home and will hope to put in a more convincing display.
The Bavarians have been far from their best in recent weeks as they have picked up just one win in their last three games across all competitions.
Despite their poor run of form, Bayern Munich have maintained their six-point lead at the top of the league table over nearest challengers Borussia Dortmund.
Eintracht Frankfurt, on the other hand, are 10th in the league table and are on a two-game losing run.
Frankfurt were beaten 1-0 by FC Koln in their previous outing and will hope to muster a more positive display against Bayern Munich.
