Command Analysis

Eintracht Braunschweig

Current form
The "Lions" are at the bottom of the second Bundesliga table. For the second year in a row, they have managed to cling to a safe place. This is already a success, if you look at the history of recent years. In the German Cup, there was no surprise last season either, unlike in previous seasons, when the team managed to beat Hertha twice.
The off-season was extremely busy for Daniel Scherning's charges. As many as 10 friendly matches were played. The opponents were for every taste and the team dealt with almost all of them. Even regular participants of the European Cups Basel and Panathinaikos could not find the key to the Germans. Everything would be fine, but the start in the championship did not go well at all. A complete rout from Schalke (1:5) and a home defeat from Magdeburg (1:3). In the second match they played very well, but the opponent was much more effective at the opponent's goal.
Disqualifications and injuries
The club will not be helped by Sane and Casali, who are in the infirmary
Interesting trends for betting
- Eintracht have conceded in the first half in three of their last four matches.
- The teams exchanged goals in their previous two matches.
Tentative line-up : Grill - Nicolau, Bikakcic, Eilers - Ba, Köhler, Kaufmann, Di Michele Sanchez - Conte, Philip, Gomez

Eintracht Frankfurt

Current form
The club's results are stable. Head coach Dino Toppmöller gained experience as an assistant at top Bundesliga clubs and was able to maintain the team's level overall. But he showed no progress, despite the fact that the "eagles" finished in sixth place and qualified for the Europa League. There were high expectations in the German Cup, since the club reached the final in the 2022/23 season, and last year they were unable to beat third-division Saarbrücken in the 1/8 finals. It is unlikely that the fans took this calmly. The team shows itself in very different ways in this tournament. At the start, the most combative lineup always comes out, but during the season, when the main team gets tired, there is a rotation.
The team did not have many serious sparring matches in the summer. It is difficult to assess the game form during the tour to other countries. Everything was smooth there. The last meeting before the official matches was away to Valencia, and there the test was more serious. The defense did not cope at all and Frankfurt lost (2:3).
Disqualifications and injuries
The club will not be helped by Wenig, Laune and Gotra, who are in the infirmary.
Interesting trends for betting
- Eintracht have scored under 2.5 goals away from home in 15 of their last 16 matches.
- The club has conceded in 14 of its last 15 away matches.
Tentative line-up : Trapp – Tuta, Koch, Amanda – Christensen, Shkiri, Götze, Knauff – Shaibi, Marmush – Ekitike

2.10Tip and bets
The visitors are clear favourites. But there have been cases when they have stopped at the 1/32 final stage of the national cup. Over the past five years, this has happened twice, and the opponents there were no weaker than the current one. This gives some hope to the hosts, but everything still depends on the guests from Frankfurt. The visiting team looks stronger and will get through to the next stage of the competition.
Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1) on Eintracht Frankfurt with odds of 1.75
Betting on Team Goals
Although the "Eagles" occasionally go far in the Cup, they sometimes have problems with teams from the lower leagues. When the draw brings them together with a representative of the Second Bundesliga, they usually concede one goal. The team from Braunschweig showed excellent performance in the off-season and scored a goal in two championship matches. We believe that an exchange of goals will take place.
Prediction: both teams will score with odds of 1.50
Bet on total
The visitors will certainly strive to win and are unlikely to play too cautiously, and the club has classy players in attack, who are in no way inferior in class and experience to their opponents. It is worth counting on a goal extravaganza, since the hosts have finished two matches in a row with a total over.
Betting Tip - total over 3.5 goals with odds of 2.30
