Frankfurt vs Wolfsburg Prediction 2 February 2025

🔊 Can Wolfsburg rise to the European competition zone? To do this, they need to beat Eintracht at the "Deutsche Bank Park" and hope for a slip-up from Mainz. Both events can happen, especially since the team from Frankfurt played in the Europa League on Thursday. The "Wolves" have been collecting more points away from home this season. Therefore, this match will be one of the most interesting in the 20th round. We will consider different options to make the prediction optimal.

📊 Head-to-Head

Over a span of 34 head-to-head matches, Wolfsburg holds an advantage with 41% wins. However, in the first round of the current season, Eintracht was stronger (2:1). At that time, Ridle Baku scored for the "Wolves," while Omar Marmoush secured victory for his team with a brace. Interestingly, both players changed clubs in January. Notably, Wolfsburg has not lost by more than one goal in 12 consecutive away head-to-head meetings. Therefore, a potential bet is victory for the visitors with a handicap (+1.5).

🔴 Eintracht

Eintracht knows how to do business by selling strikers. Over the last five years, they have sold Sébastien Haller, Luka Jović, and Randal Kolo Muani, each bringing the club no less than €50.0m. However, in recent years these players have lost value. In January, Eintracht parted ways with their leader Omar Marmoush after receiving an offer from Manchester City that couldn't be refused. A third of the proceeds were used to acquire 22-year-old Elye Wahi. His career didn't pan out in Marseille, but he had good statistics in Montpellier and Lens. In Marmoush's absence, Hugo Ekitike has taken on the role of attack leader, scoring in the last three rounds and even securing a brace against Hoffenheim. However, Eintracht decided to play defensively at one point, which proved to be a mistake (2:2). Nevertheless, the team feels confident in third place in the league table and will remain there regardless of the outcome of the upcoming match. Note that Junior Dina will not play due to injury. It's likely that Wahi's debut is also postponed for the same reason.

🟢 Wolfsburg

Wolfsburg has chosen a transfer policy focused on Denmark. In this transfer window, Andreas Skov Olsen was signed from Brugge, and Mads Roerslev Rasmussen joined on loan from Brentford recently. Thus, the number of Danes in the squad has doubled. The first of the newcomers already debuted for Wolfsburg in the last round, playing a half. However, in 45 minutes he couldn't make any decisive actions but left a good impression. Unfortunately, his team only drew with Holstein (2:2). Note that the "Wolves" display unique statistics. They score more from set pieces than anyone else but also lead in goals conceded from them. Wolfsburg has a fairly large group of players in the infirmary. Jakub Kamiński recently joined them, missing the last two matches due to injury. Patrick Wimmer will also not play in the upcoming match due to an accumulation of yellow cards.

⚽️ Goal Prediction

Eintracht can be called a home team. They have collected significantly more points at home and scored 25 goals in nine matches. Moreover, Dino Toppmöller's team regularly scores after halftime. At least they managed to do so in 9 out of their last 10 matches at "Deutsche Bank Park". Therefore, we suggest betting on Eintracht to score in the 2nd half.

🚩 Corner Prediction

Eintracht has an advantage in corners this season - 5.4 against 5.2. In matches involving these teams, there are on average about 10 corners. Therefore, it is worth considering a bet on total corners over 9.5, which has played out in 6 out of Wolfsburg's last 7 away matches in the Bundesliga.

📝 Match Prediction

The favorite for the upcoming match is Eintracht. On Thursday, they lost to Roma in the Europa League; however, the match had no tournament significance for the team. Nevertheless, they often drop points on weekends after midweek games. Therefore, we wouldn't be surprised if Wolfsburg manages to hold on for a draw in the upcoming match. Hence, we note a potential exact score of 2:2.

Eintracht has scored at home in 18 consecutive matches. On the other hand, they have conceded in 23 consecutive head-to-head meetings between the teams in the Bundesliga. Wolfsburg hasn't left the field without a goal in 12 consecutive matches. Therefore, as a key bet, we choose - both teams to score (Yes).
