Eintracht Frankfurt vs Union Berlin prediction, preview, team news and more | Bundesliga 2021-22

The Bundesliga will continue at the weekend and will see Eintracht Frankfurt host Union Berlin at the Commerzbank Arena on Sunday.

Eintracht Frankfurt picked up back-to-back league wins for the first time since April after beating Freiburg 2-0 away from home in their last Bundesliga outing. Jesper Lindstrom and Filip Kostic both scored goals for the visitors on the day.

Eintracht Frankfurt still have quite a long way to go as they sit 11th in the league table. However, they could move within touching distance of the European spots with a win on Sunday.

Union Berlin beat Hertha Berlin 2-0 in their last game, their first league win since they beat Wolfsburg by the same scoreline last month. The win over Hertha Berlin ended a three-game winless run in the league and was followed by a 1-0 win over Maccabi Haifa in the Conference League on Thursday.

Union Berlin sit fifth in the Bundesliga standings with 20 points from 12 games. They could break into the Champions League places with a win at the weekend.

Eintracht Frankfurt vs Union Berlin Prediction

Eintracht Frankfurt are unbeaten in their last five games across all competitions. They have lost just one home game all season and will be looking to capitalize on their home advantage at the weekend.

Union Berlin have won just one game on the road in the Bundesliga this season, a 2-1 win over Mainz early last month. Their poor away form could continue on Sunday, and we expect Eintracht Frankfurt to secure a narrow win.
