Eintracht Frankfurt vs Schalke Prediction and Betting Tips | January 21st 2023

Eintracht Frankfurt will host Schalke at Deutsche Bank Park on Saturday evening in another round of the German Bundesliga campaign.

The home side have had a largely solid campaign and are now in the hunt for back-to-back UEFA Champions League campaigns. They played out a 1-1 draw against Mainz in their last Bundesliga game, with Randal Kolo Muani scoring a second-half leveler before heading to the World Cup with the French national team.

Eintracht Frankfurt sit fourth in the Bundesliga standings with 27 points from 15 games and will be looking to return to competitive action this weekend on a positive note.

Schalke, meanwhile, have endured a disastrous return to the top flight and currently find themselves deep in the drop zone. They were beaten 2-0 by league leaders and defending champions Bayern Munich in their last game and were perhaps fortunate not to have lost by a larger margin.

The visitors sit rock-bottom in the league table with just nine points picked so far. They will aim to begin picking up points starting this weekend to avoid an impending relegation tussle.
