Eintracht Frankfurt vs Ferencvárosi: betting odds 23 Jan 2025
Eintracht Frankfurt — Ferencvárosi betting tips 23 Jan 2025
The departure of Eintracht Frankfurt’s top scorer Omar Marmoush is unlikely to deal a critical blow to the team's attack. The Frankfurt side are already working on signing a replacement for the Egyptian, and against Ferencváros, the skills of Hugo Ekitiké and Mario Götze should suffice for a victory.
A sharp downturn at the end of 2024, with five matches without a win, highlighted areas Eintracht Frankfurt need to improve. However, in three January Bundesliga rounds, they secured three wins and produced 7.11 xG, the third-best during this period. Hugo Ekitiké scored in two consecutive fixtures for the team, with 1+2 in six Europa League rounds. Currently, the Germans are in the top eight of the European competition, and a victory over the Hungarian side will likely secure them a place in the Round of 16.
A strong run of three wins helped Ferencváros consolidate their position in the playoff zone, but a thrashing by PAOK (0:5) pointed to systematic defensive errors. The Greek side managed 3.06 xG with seven shots on target. Varga Barnabás returns to Pascal Janssen’s squad after a suspension for an accumulation of yellow cards, but with the Hungarian Championship still on break, Ferencváros lack match practice for over a month, which will affect the result.
Since October 24, Eintracht Frankfurt have won seven of their nine home appearances. Ferencváros are unlikely to be an obstacle for the top-four Bundesliga side, who have found their form.
