Eintracht Frankfurt vs Mainz Betting Tips : Frankfurt to Win
Eintracht fell short of exploiting the missteps of third-placed Stuttgart and fourth-placed RB Leipzig to close in on Champions League spots, as their entire effort and a two-goal lead went down the drain when they conceded a frustrating late 2-2 draw in their weekend visit to the cellar-dwelling Darmstadt.
Notwithstanding the Saturday slip, Frankfurt finds itself in a decent run of form lately, having clinched maximum points in three out of the last five Bundesliga encounters, featuring remarkable triumphs over Bayern Munich with a 5-1 scoreline and a narrow 1-0 win against RB Leipzig to usher in the new calendar year.
After blowing away top-tier German sides in recent times, Die Adler are resolute in achieving a successful result this weekend to keep chasing a top-four spot, particularly taking into account their strong displays at Deutsche Bank Park this term, with just one loss in the opening eight home fixtures.
A full three-point reward seems within reach for Dino Toppmoller's chosen ones, facing a Mainz team enduring a nightmare season, best exemplified by the fact that their surprising 2-0 victory over RB Leipzig earlier in November was the lone joyful moment in 17 top-flight rounds for them.
While level on points with two teams currently occupying automatic relegation spots in the German second division, Die Nullfunfer find solace in having one match in hand, but hitting the back of the net continues to be the weakest link for the 16th-placed side, with their 14 goals making them the second-worst offensive performer.
Despite recently proving to be a tough nut to crack on the road, stringing together a sequence of six consecutive draws, Jan Siewert's men are still in pursuit of their first triumph away from home this term (D6, L3), providing yet another compelling reason to seriously consider Eintracht's victory. Capitalizing on the home-field advantage and riding the wave of their current momentum, Frankfurt is set to add another victory to their tally against the relegation-endangered Mainz.

Eintracht Frankfurt team news
The key trio of Ellyes Skhiri, Fares Chaibi as well as centre-forward Omar Marmoush will be unavailable for Frankfurt for some time as they will be with their national teams during the AFCON tournament.
Arrived in the winter transfer window on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers, Sasa Kalajdzic, provided an assist in the dramatic 2-2 draw away to Darmstadt last time out, but he was forced off the pitch in that match with a slight foot injury, which is why he is now questionable.

Mainz team news
Unlike their opposition on Saturday, Mainz have no major misses due to international duty, with only Jae-sung Lee remaining on the sidelines as he represents his South Korea at the Asian Cup.
Recently appointed manager Jan Siewert won't have the luxury of calling upon the long-missing Andreas Hanche-Olsen due to an ankle injury, a list that also includes teenager Nelson Weiper, forced to remain out as he undergoes a second knee intervention.
