Eintracht Frankfurt vs Mainz 05: prediction & betting odds 21 December 2024
Betting tips 21 December 2024
The surprising surge of Mainz from a team battling for survival to a top-five contender might shake Eintracht Frankfurt's confidence. Going into the clash against Mainz, Eintracht Frankfurt are not in the best form, having not won in their last four matches, but they will have strong support from their home fans.
It seems the painful elimination from the DFB-Pokal at the hands of RB Leipzig (0:3) affected Eintracht's mental state. Since that defeat, they have conceded 10 goals in four matches, with their Bundesliga match against Red Bull Leipzig resulting in an xGA of 1.92. On the flip side, Eintracht Frankfurt consistently provide entertainment, as matches involving them have seen total over 2.5 in nine of the last 11 outings.
Last weekend, Mainz became the first team in the Bundesliga to beat Bayern Munich (2:1), creating significantly more chances than the table leaders (1.64 xG vs 0.99 xG). On the road, they have amassed an xG of 10.57, ranking third in shooting efficiency in the tournament with 15 goals scored. Even without the injured Jonathan Burkardt, Mainz remain strong in attack—Armindo Siebe, who replaced him, provided two assists in 62 minutes against Bayern.
It's time for Eintracht Frankfurt to overcome their crisis, while Mainz aim to solidify their position at the top after defeating Bayern. Expect an exciting match with plenty of chances.
