THE PREDICTION
Fifth hosts fourth in a crucial match in the battle for Champions League qualification. This is also a meeting between the second- and third-best attacks in the Bundesliga and between 21-goal strikers Erling Haaland and Andre Silva, the joint second-highest scorers behind Robert Lewandowski. An entertaining contest is therefore in store, especially with Eintracht Frankfurt missing two of their first-choice and most experienced defensive players. Dortmund have scored two or more goals in seven of their last eight games in all competitions at Signal-Iduna-Park, where Frankfurt have lost on their last nine visits. The Eagles have found the net at least once in each of their last 21 Bundesliga games, though, with eight of the last 11 producing over 2.5 goals. That therefore looks the most sensible market to go for here.
