Premium Tips

Andy expects a close game and leans towards the hosts making their formidable home advantage count.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Union Berlin or draw (Double Chance) and Emmanuel Latte Lath to score anytime13/5Union Berlin remain a stubborn, physical side who are unbeaten in the last five meetings with Frankfurt, winning two and drawing three, and their home fortress at An der Alten Foersterei suits an opening-day atmosphere. That form supports the double chance covering a home win or draw. Frankfurt still carry a real attacking threat despite the tricky away test, and four of the last five head-to-head meetings have seen both sides score, including a 3-4 thriller. Latte Lath getting on the scoresheet for the visitors fits that expected pattern of goals at both ends even if Union avoid defeat.
Robin Koch and Oscar Hojlund to be booked10/1This is billed as a genuinely close, physical contest, with Union Berlin known for making life difficult for visitors through a well-drilled and combative approach. That style tends to produce a high number of duels and mistimed challenges from both sides central defenders and midfielders as they compete for second balls and loose possession. Koch anchors Frankfurts back line against a direct home attack, while Hojlund is exposed to Frankfurts own threat on the counter, and in a match expected to be tight throughout rather than one sided, both are likely to pick up cards from repeated defensive duels.

How Union Berlin go into the game

Union Berlin finished 11th last season and remain a stubborn, awkward side, especially at home. The opener at a raucous Alten Foersterei suits them.

Union are well-drilled and physical, and they make life miserable for visitors. Turning that into an opening-day win is the plan.

How Eintracht Frankfurt go into the game

Eintracht Frankfurt finished eighth last season and travel with genuine European ambitions. They carry a real threat going forward.

Frankfurt have the quality to win anywhere but An der Alten Foersterei is a demanding opener. Staying patient will be key.
