Eintracht Frankfurt vs Benfica Prediction & Tips
Let’s say that for the Eintracht Frankfurt turned everything wrong in the first leg: heavy result in a race played for a long time in numerical inferiority. Yet the result allows the Germans to keep hope alive and believe in a comeback, certainly difficult, but not impossible. Above all judging by the results of the two teams in the cup: on the one hand an Eintracht that really leaves the crumbs to the opponents at home, on the other a Benfica that on the other hand makes great effort to replicate the performances offered in front of its public.
In fact, before the game against Inter in the first knockout round, the Eintracht Frankfurt had won all the home games.
Benfica came a 0-0 draw, but teams like Shakhtar, Lazio and Marseille had fallen earlier at Eintracht.
And in the five games played in Frankfurt, the Germans cashed only two goals, one from Shakhtar and one from Lazio (both races ended 4-1).
On the other hand, Benfica struggled a lot on the road: in the sixteenths they drew 0-0 in Istanbul against Galatasaray, in the second round they lost 1-0 in Zagreb against Dinamo.
Even in the Champions League it didn’t go better: only victory on the field of AEK Athens (2-3), then defeats against Ajax (1-0) and Bayern Monaco (5-1).
So, apart from Athens, Benfica have only scored an away goal in this European season in four games. Eintracht vice versa in the house blinds the door. And in this race where not conceding a goal is an obligation, the Germans will pay even more attention.
