Eintracht Frankfurt v Werder Bremen

Eintracht Frankfurt vs Werder Bremen Preview

Eintracht Frankfurt maintained their quest for a top six finish in this season's Bundesliga campaign as the hosts picked up a point in a 0-0 draw at home with Union Berlin and the hosts will be wanting to one step better though on Friday night when they play host to mid-table outfit Werder Bremen at their Deutsche Bank Park as the hosts look to pull away from the chasing pack behind them.

Following an encouraging four-match unbeaten run in the German top flight from towards the end of December through to towards the end of January which included three wins against the likes of Borussia M'gladbach, RB Leipzig and Mainz, the hosts have stumbled rather than cruised in subsequent weeks.

Eintracht Frankfurt have managed to collect just two wins from their last eight games overall in the Bundesliga which came in the form of victories over Heidenheim and Hoffenheim but also includes slipping to defeats at the hands of FC Cologne and Borussia Dortmund as well.

However, it should be noted that both of these losses were incurred on their travels while results on home soil at their Deutsche Bank Park still remain solid and impressive as Dino Toppmoller's side are unbeaten in their last seven home games, winning four of these.

Werder Bremen had also enjoyed an extended unbeaten run in the German top flight from early December through to early February which saw the visitors put together a solid looking seven-match sequence without defeat and included picking up four wins thanks to victories against Augsburg, Bayern Munich, Freiburg and Mainz.

However, Ole Werner's side have managed to claim just one further win from their subsequent seven matches overall in the Bundesliga though which came in the form of a narrow 1-0 win on the road at FC Cologne but also includes being handed no fewer than five defeats in the process.

Indeed, Werder Bremen head into Friday night's clash at the Deutsche Bank Park on the back of four defeats on the trot as the visitors have been dealt losses by the likes of Hoffenheim, Borussia Dortmund, Union Berlin and Wolfsburg respectively which do not bode well for the visitors in this upcoming encounter.

The bigger picture shows Werder Bremen have managed to capture just three wins from their previous 16 outings on the road and having suffered 10 defeats within this period as well, Ole Werner's side will do well to get anything from this clash on Friday night.
