RB LEIPZIG-EINTRACHT FRANKFURT    (won)

                               RB LEIPZIG-EINTRACHT FRANKFURT

The DFP-Pokal normally gets out the best out of both teams, RB and EINTRACHT have won the Cup in recent years and after the defeat of Bayern Munich yesterday the chances of going all the way are a lot higher with also BVB already out of it. RB lately in a big slump: 6 Matches now without a W (2 CL, 4 Liga: 5L and just 1D). Last weekend at home a devestating 1-5 L to medicore Wolfsburg. Xavi Simons is heavily missing but something in the character of the squad seems just arkward. Coach Rose is shaky and since it looks like in CL with 0 pts after 5 of 8 Match Days Bundesliga and DFB-Cup are the only competitions to get some results. DFB-Cup the easiest way to save a season. After this one 2 moore W to the Final in Berlin.They will be at their best today with a highly motivated first 11. Question still is though is this enough for EINTRACHT FRANKFURT with their current run. EINTRACHT the total opposite with now 9 Games without a L (3 ECL and 6 Bundesliga). Last weekend 4-0 W at Heidenheim, they scored 9 goals in their last 3 Away Matches, average of 3 goals. They can- if things go again against RB take care of the OVER 2.5 GOALS themselves with MARMOUSH, EKITIKE, GÖTZE, KNAUFF and and and. Still always good for conceding and RB has still enough firepower upfront with SEZKO, OPENDA and Co. RB has SCORED at home 8 goals in their last 4 Home Matches, always good for multiple times. H2H looks more under 2.5 goals BUT only DFB-Cup encounter EINTRACHT won 3-1. A similar result is expected, BOTH TEAMS will be getting chances and are more than able to execute the OVER 2.5 GOALS and the DFB-Pokal has it own rules.....
