Heidenheim vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction and Betting Tips | March 2nd 2024
The German Bundesliga returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Heidenheim and Eintracht Frankfurt lock horns at Voith Arena on Saturday.
While the hosts set out to secure their first home win of the year, Dino Toppmoller’s men will be looking to end their six-game winless run.
Heidenheim were denied consecutive away victories for the first time this season as they played out a 2-2 draw with Union Berlin at the An der alten Försterei last Saturday.
Frank Schmidt’s men have now gone unbeaten in 10 of their last 11 matches across all competitions, picking up five wins and five draws since the second week of December.
With 28 points from 23 matches, Heidenheim are currently 10th in the Bundesliga table but could rise into seventh place with all three points this weekend.
Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt needed a 92nd-minute strike from Egyptian forward Omar Marmoush to salvage a 2-2 draw against Wolfsburg last Sunday.
Die Adler have now failed to win their last six matches across all competitions, a run which has seen them crash out of the UEFA Europa Conference League courtesy of a 4-3 aggregate loss against Union Saint-Gilloise.
With 34 points from 23 matches, Frankfurt are currently sixth in the Bundesliga standings, just four points above seventh-placed Hoffenheim outside the European qualification places.
