St. Pauli Form & Record Check
FC St. Pauli pulled off an unexpected 1-0 away win at VfB Stuttgart. In the 21st minute, Johannes Eggestein took advantage of a mistake in the Stuttgart defense to score the decisive goal. Shortly after halftime, St. Pauli had a chance to extend their lead when a foul by Anrie Chase on Oladapo Afolayan led to a penalty kick. Eggestein took it, but VfB goalkeeper Alexander Nübel saved the spot kick.
Despite intensive offensive efforts by Stuttgart, in particular by Nick Woltemade and Enzo Millot, the Kiezkicker’s defense held firm. Goalkeeper Nikola Vasilj made several excellent saves to secure the narrow lead.
In the final phase, Afolayan had the opportunity to finally decide the game, but only hit the post. Thanks to a solid team performance and effective defensive work, St. Pauli took three important points and gained some breathing space in the relegation battle.
Weak home record
FC St. Pauli is currently going through a difficult phase, especially in front of its home crowd. In their last five home Bundesliga matches, the Kiezkicker have only managed to record one victory. Added to that, they have suffered three defeats and a draw, which underlines their weak home record.
This lack of form in their own stadium makes it all the more difficult for St. Pauli to hold their own in the bottom half of the table and collect important points in the fight against relegation. The team faces the challenge of rediscovering their home strength and using the Millerntor factor to turn things around.

Frankfurt Form & Record Check
Eintracht Frankfurt had to accept a 1:3 defeat against 1. FSV Mainz 05 in their home stadium. The game started with an unfortunate own goal from goalkeeper Kaua Santos in the 15th minute, when an unsuccessful attempt at clearing a back pass ended up in his own net.
Despite Mainz captain Nadiem Amiri being sent off after just 21 minutes, Paul Nebel managed to extend the lead to 2-0 in the 27th minute. In the second half, Nebel increased the lead to 3-0 in the 58th minute, before Rasmus Kristensen scored the consolation goal for Frankfurt with a header from a corner in the 75th minute.
Despite numerous chances and a 70% ball possession, Eintracht was unable to avert defeat. This unexpected victory catapulted Mainz to fifth place in the table, while Frankfurt continued its negative streak.
Weak away record
Eintracht Frankfurt is currently in a worrying form, especially in away games. The last three away games in all competitions have all been lost, with the team conceding eight goals and not scoring any themselves. This poor away record raises questions about defensive stability and playing away from home. To keep up with the top teams in the table, Frankfurt urgently needs to find ways to improve its performance away from home.

Eintracht Frankfurt, on the other hand, relies on the classic 4-4-2, which is designed for stability and balance between defense and offense. With two strikers and a solid midfield line, this formation offers both defensive security and offensive power.
