RB Leipzig vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction: Battle for position in top 4

Amidst the competitive landscape of the Bundesliga, a significant matchup looms as RB Leipzig prepares to host Eintracht Frankfurt on December 15, 2024. Set against the backdrop of the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig, this encounter is more than a mere league fixture; it's a crucial juncture for both teams. This match is the most intriguing of the day.

At the beginning of this month, these two teams competed against one another in the last-16 round of the DFB Pokal. RB Leipzig triumphed over their opponent by a score of 3-0, resulting in a resounding victory. However, the home team ought to be up against a somewhat more difficult obstacle. 

The dismal 2-2 draw that Eintracht Frankfurt played against Augsburg at home on the previous Saturday has not prevented them from maintaining their position as the second-place team in the Bundesliga standings. In the most recent five league matches, they recorded four victories and one draw. Despite this, they continue to have one of the greatest scoring records in the league, having scored 33 goals in a total of thirteen matches.

Two players have been very lethal for Frankfurt. Omar Marmoush and Hugo Ekitike have scored a combined total of 20 goals for Eintracht in the first 13 rounds of the season. When playing against RB Leipzig, whose defence surrendered 17 shots in the road match against Holstein Kiel last Saturday, this combo ought to have some success in the last third of the field.

In all but one of Frankfurt's six league games played away from home this season, the team scored three goals or more in each of those games. I highly anticipate Frankfurt to win or draw as well as Frankfurt to score over 1.5 goals. It is like Ekiti or Omar will score.
