Eintracht Frankfurt vs RB Leipzig Betting Tips: 1X (DOUBLE CHANCE)

While RB Leipzig remains stuck in the current fourth position without the ability to move either up or down, Frankfurt is on the brink of securing a spot in the UEFA Europa League for the next season, but to accomplish that, they must secure at least a point on the final day of the Bundesliga 2023-24 campaign, which seems like a feasible task.

Actually, securing the sixth position would represent only the second-best finish in the past 12 years for Die Adler, and they should ensure they remain undefeated in Saturday's contest, as they have built their Deutsche Bank Park as a tough fortress, succumbing to defeat only twice in this term's 16 home fixtures.

Unfortunately, the second setback occurred in their last home fixture, where they suffered a five-star demolition by the ruthless Bayer Leverkusen, but Dino Toppmoller's squad harbors warm hopes of quickly getting back on track, emboldened by the fact that they have never lost a single H2H home encounter against RB Leipzig (W4, D4).

Despite unconvincing displays of late, Frankfurt will need to be at their best if they want to secure a top-six finish, as their Die Roten Bullen opponents are in exceptional form, having remained undefeated in their last 11 competitive fixtures (D4, L7) since falling to a late 1-2 loss against Bayern Munich at the end of February.

Fixed in fourth position, deprived of the opportunity to rise or fall in the standings regardless of the closing day's result, RB Leipzig might find themselves lacking passion, fire and desire for success, given they have already secured Champions League football for the sixth year in a row in their brief eight-year Bundesliga tenure.

As they bid to reach their highest total of points earned in the past seven seasons, the efforts of Marco Rose's crew will be hampered by a reluctant performances at Deutsche Bank Park, where, among other things, they were humiliated at this venue last season in a 0-4 thrashing by Frankfurt. When we eigh everything up, we believe that a draw would be an acceptable outcome for both sides, but we also hope that Die Adler will maintain their unbeaten home H2H record against RB Leipzig for the ninth time in a row.
