Eintracht Frankfurt: current form, latest results, statistics
Mission almost impossible for Eintracht Frankfurt in this phase of the eighth-finals of the Europa League. She leaves with a three-goal disadvantage, which seems to be difficult to recover in the situation in which the players have interrupted the official matches for about five weeks. The Bundesliga ended at the end of June, and the new season will be announced on Friday when the German forum will announce the full program. He ranked 9th, which means he misses the new season of European Cups.
However, she can be satisfied with the performance she had until the European spring, where she overcame the awkward Salzburg in the last 16. The Eagles then won 6-3 overall (4-2 in Germany and 2-2 in Austria). Eintracht entered the top 32 teams in the Europa League after finishing second in Group F, with 9 points, two lengths behind Arsenal London.

FC Basel vs Eintracht Frankfurt Picks
Football without supporters is a more offensive one, also because the players no longer feel the pressure of the public. All the more so in this match, when Eintracht has to play its best football if it wants to attack the qualification and I have no doubt that this is what it wants. It has nothing to lose, while Basel is a team that has consistently scored in European cups.
Our Prediction: Over 2.5 goals
Odds: 1.62
