RB Leipzig vs Eintracht Frankfurt — Tips & Analysis

Over 3.5: Both of these teams keep turning up in busy games, and that is the simplest case here. Frankfurt have had 3 or more goals in 10 of their last 11 games. Leipzig are the same story, with 3 or more goals in 12 of their last 14. Leipzig have won all six of their recent home games, and both of their home league games this season had 3 or more goals. They score more than 2 goals a game and let in more than a goal a game, so they rarely keep things quiet. Frankfurt also score more than 2 goals a game, but they let in 2 goals a game. They have let in goals in both of their away league games this season, and they lost 1-4 at home to Augsburg last month. They still find the net on the road: 3-1 at Mainz, 3-3 at Union Berlin and 2-3 at Dortmund. So we get an open home side against a defense that leaks, and Frankfurt score even when they lose. A 3-1 Leipzig win looks the most likely score, and a game like that gets us home. The honest worry is a slow start. These two averaged almost 3 goals in total in their last 20 meetings. Both sides have also had about three weeks off, so rust could keep the early goals away. We still want the busier game here.
