Eintracht Frankfurt vs Aberdeen Predictions

Götze’s Moment to Shine?
Key Stats
– Frankfurt have seen fewer than three goals in all of their Bundesliga matches this season.
– Aberdeen’s Bojan Miovski has already found the net five times this season.
As Aberdeen gears up to face Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa Conference League, it marks a significant milestone for the Scottish side; their first European match (excluding qualifiers) since 2007. The odds, however, are heavily stacked against them. Frankfurt are the clear favourites, especially with history on their side, recalling the 1979/80 UEFA Cup when after a draw at Pittodrie, the German outfit managed to edge out Alex Ferguson’s Dons 1-0 in the return leg in West Germany.
Examining Frankfurt’s Form
This season, Eintracht Frankfurt, under the guidance of Dino Toppmoller, have showcased a knack for low-scoring affairs, with most of their Bundesliga matches concluding with fewer than three goals. This might raise eyebrows considering the calibre of their opponents. Their only win so far was a narrow 1-0 triumph, suggesting their frontline is somewhat blunt, particularly after the departure of their star player, Randal Kolo-Muani.

However, the acquisition of Omar Marmoush from Wolfsburg presents an opportunity for a new hero to rise. The team’s overall stats offer a mixed bag. They’ve managed to find the net 4 times and conceded 3. With ball possession averaging around 59.3% and a noteworthy average BettingTips4You Expert Rating for players such as Kevin Trapp and Mario Götze, Frankfurt are by no means pushovers.
Aberdeen’s Struggles
Aberdeen’s season has been challenging, to put it mildly. Barry Robson’s side, after a plethora of summer signings, is yet to find the cohesion and rhythm necessary for success. Their dismal position in the Scottish Premier League is a testament to this, being just a hairbreadth away from the bottom, anchored only by goal difference. Recent defeats, such as the 2-0 loss to Hearts, exemplify their predicament. However, amidst the gloom, Bojan Miovski shines as a beacon of hope, having netted five times already this season.
The Predictions
1. Match Outcome Prediction: Based on both teams’ form and available data, it seems plausible to lean towards an “under 2.5 goals” outcome. While Frankfurt has been involved in low-scoring games, Aberdeen’s strategy will likely be a defensive one, employing a low block and aiming for counter-attacks. The odds for a high-scoring game seem remote.
2. Correct Score Prediction: Given Frankfurt’s penchant for low-scoring matches and Aberdeen’s defensive approach, a 2-0 win in favour of Eintracht Frankfurt is a likely outcome.
3. Goalscorer Prediction: Bojan Miovski has been Aberdeen’s standout player this season, but Mario Götze’s star appeal and eagerness to add to his solitary goal this campaign makes him a prime candidate to find the net. He’s our pick for an anytime goalscorer.
