Aberdeen vs Eintracht Frankfurt Predictions

Aberdeen will be keen to finish their campaign on a high against a likely weakened Eintracht Frankfurt.

I expect plenty of goal-mouth action, so I´m confidently backing BTTS as my primary pick, with over 2.5 goals also expected in Scotland.

Finally, I'll take a small punt on Aberdeen in the double-chance market.

Aberdeen have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals in 5 of their last 6 home matches (European competitions)
Aberdeen have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals in 7 of their last 9 matches (Conference League)
Eintracht Frankfurt have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals in 5 of their last 6 matches
Eintracht Frankfurt have failed to win 9 of their last 13 away matches

Head to Head

Eintracht Frankfurt edged to a narrow 2-1 win when these sides met in their only previous meeting in Germany earlier this season.

Aberdeen Form

Aberdeen finally broke a six-game winless streak with a much-needed 2-1 victory against Hearts last weekend. An injury-time winner from Leigh Clarkson helped ease the pressure on under-fire boss Barry Robson.

Up to ninth in the Premiership, the Dons have proven an inconsistent bunch this season, as evidenced by recent form, which has seen them win three and lose four of their last ten.

Unable to advance to the Conference League knockout phase, Aberdeen sit third in the section with three points collected after a 2-2 draw at HJK on matchday five.

Aberdeen Team News

Aberdeen picked up no fresh injury issues in their comeback victory against Hearts last weekend. Head coach Robson has a full squad to choose from and may well name an unchanged XI for the Don's final European fixture of the season.

Eintracht Frankfurt Form

A run of four successive defeats was brought to a remarkable conclusion on Saturday as Eintracht stunned Bayern Munich with a 5-1 win in Frankfurt. Already 3-1 up at half-time, further strikes from Junior Dina Ebimbe and Ansgar Knauff in the second period secured a famous win for Dino Toppmöller´s side.

Still seventh in the Bundesliga, The Eagles have failed to win any of their last three on the road, including a surprise 2-0 DFB Pokal defeat at Saarbrucken.

Already assured of their place in the latter phase of the Conference League, Eintracht cannot finish higher than second, with PAOK four points clear at the top of the section.

Eintracht Frankfurt Team News

Dino Toppmöller is likely to rotate his selection with Eintracht´s place in the knock-out round playoff already secure. Noel Futkeu is suspended for the trip to Scotland, while Mehdi Loune remains a long-term absentee.

Club captain Sebastian Rode will miss out with a calf injury, while Timothy Chandler and Ellyes Skhiri are also set to remain sidelined.

Verdict

Aberdeen v Eintracht Frankfurt

While both teams already know their respective European fates, we should still see a competitive and intriguing contest at Pittodrie.

I'm optimistic we will see BTTS and over 2.5 goals, while the Dons could take a point or more against a likely rotated Frankfurt selection.
