Frankfurt form & balance check
It makes a strong impression, as if the Frankfurt Eintracht is so a little bit the worm in it. For weeks, the results are missing and the actual season goal, the qualification for the international business, can probably only be achieved via the DFB Cup. There, the semifinal against VfB Stuttgart awaits in a few weeks.
First, however, the homework in the Bundesliga must be done. There it looked in recent weeks anything but good and the Hessians won none of the last eight games. This was also not the case last weekend, when Eintracht was beaten 4-0 by the new league leaders from Dortmund.
Not always successful at home
Frankfurt are without any question one of the best home teams in the league. This is also shown by the statistic that Eintracht has not lost in front of their own fans for seven games. However, the last three games were not particularly successful. After Eintracht had won four home games in a row, there were then three draws in a row.
Above all, coach Oliver Glasner is considered a lucky charm in the upcoming match. Glasner has yet to suffer a defeat against FCA as a coach. Overall, Hessen also conceded just one goal in their last three home games against FCA.
Frankfurt facts & analysis
- 7 home games in a row without defeat.
- Currently in seventh place in the league
- In the semifinals of the DFB Cup
Augsburg form & balance check
If we take a closer look at Augsburg’s last few years, this time around their season is going quite solidly after all. With five matchdays to go in the season, coach Enrico Maaßen’s men are a full five points clear of sixteenth-placed Stuttgart. On the last matchday, FCA missed a big step towards staying in the class. Just against that VfB there was only a 1:1 in front of their own fans.
Next weekend, the Bavarian Swabians head to Frankfurt am Main, where things have looked anything but good for FCA in recent years. Most recently, the Augsburg team went without a win three times in a row and in that period they only managed one point and only one goal.
Away very weak
One of the reasons why Augsburg are playing against relegation again this season is their glaring weakness on away grounds. If we take a closer look at the bare figures, FCA acts like a relegated team away from home.
Only two meager points have been earned in the last ten games. Overall, things are not going particularly well for FCA at the moment. Only the upcoming opponents from Frankfurt and Hertha from Berlin have been without a win longer than FCA – they haven’t won in six games.
Augsburg facts & analysis
- Since 6 games without a win.
- Standing at 30 points
- Currently ranked 13th
Predicted lineup – last update on April 27, 2023
The hosts from Frankfurt should finally want to win again. Coach Glasner will again have his eleven start in a 3-4-2-1. Kamada and Götze will mainly support Kolo Muani. Lenz will take the left part in the three-man backline alongside Hasebe and Tuta.
Augsburg, on the other hand, will once again have to do without regular keeper Gikiewicz. The Pole is still missing due to injury. Beljo will look to build on his goal against VfB Stuttgart. Maier and Demirovic should feed him with balls. There will be no big surprises with Enrico Maaßen.
