Eintracht vs Darmstadt Prediction

Eintracht Form

Eintracht beat Freiburg by 2-1, lost 2-0 against RB Leipzig, before defeating Lokomotive Leipzig 0-7. Eintracht only pulled off two wins from a possible six in recent Bundesliga matches on home soil. Of the remaining four matches, they drew four and lost zero, as they scored nine and conceded five goals.

While a title challenge may be a bit of a stretch, Eintracht look a solid bet for a top three finish at the end of the season.

Darmstadt Form

Darmstadt have only one win in their last three matches, as they did beat Magdeburg by 1-0. Disappointment followed, going down 4-0 against Greuther Fuerth, and 3-0 against Homburg. Darmstadt claimed just one win from the last six away games in the Bundesliga. They also drew one and were defeated four times, as they were outscored by 12 goals to six.

While a title challenge may be a bit of a stretch, Eintracht look a solid bet for a top three finish at the end of the season.

With Eintracht in relatively good shape these days, we aim for the home win, when they take on Darmstadt. The value lies with the former, with form a little too dubious for the visitors.
