There is little doubt that Bundesliga betting fans will be in the thick
of things this weekend with nine matches scheduled for Saturday, however,
arguably the most anticipated of the day will be the showdown between new
champions Borussia Dortmund and lowly Eintracht Frankfurt, who are holding onto
the Bundesliga by their fingertips.
Can Frankfurt step up their game
It will be very interesting to see if Dortmund performs to the high level they
have for most of the season against the far weaker Frankfurt, or whether with
the pressure now off, they'll treat the match like a friendly. Similarly, it
will be interesting to see if Frankfurt will step up their game, considering a
loss will guarantee their relegation.
It goes without saying that Borussia Dortmund will start as the overwhelming
Bundesliga betting favourites, aided by the fact they will be playing in front
of their now contented home fans, which given their champion status, will be
even more intimidating for the visiting Eintracht Frankfurt.
Frankfurt may well surprise betting fans
However, for our Bundesliga betting buck, Frankfurt may just be able to pull off
an upset victory, considering their backs are against the wall, and this match
will determine their future in the Bundesliga. What this means is that we do not
believe Frankfurt will simply 'rollover' on Saturday, and could well punish any
complacency from the home team.
In a high-pressure match like Saturday's the underdogs usually either fold like
a house of cards or step up and find an inner strength to carry them through. So
in terms of our free Bundesliga betting tip, we highly recommend you throw a
couple of bucks behind Frankfurt - but not your life savings - and you might be
pleasantly surprised.
