Augsburg vs. Eintracht: Match Prediction
Jess Thorup's side is in excellent form. Augsburg has suffered only one defeat in their last 13 league matches (7 wins, 5 draws), with the loss coming against Bayern. At home, the club has lost only to the aforementioned Munich side, Bayer, and Stuttgart in their last 11 encounters, all of whom were last season's top three finishers.
Frankfurt's away form is modest: the team has won just two of their last seven Bundesliga matches (2 draws, 3 losses), with victories coming against relegation-battling Bochum and St. Pauli. Eintracht has also struggled at their upcoming opponent's ground, failing to win against Augsburg in 9 of their last 12 league meetings.
After additional exertion in the Europa League, it will be challenging for Frankfurt to achieve a good result against a tough opponent. My prediction: Augsburg with a handicap (0)
