RB Leipzig v Eintracht Frankfurt

RB Leipzig vs Eintracht Frankfurt Preview

The German domestic cup final also features on Saturday evening when Bundesliga outfits, RB Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt clash at the Olympiastadion Berlin for the chance of adding silverware to their respective trophy cabinets, and in Eintracht Frankfurt's case, a chance to secure a place in Europe next season.

It's been another solid and successful season for RB Leipzig as they achieved a top four finish in the German top flight (finishing in third place and just five points behind the top two clubs, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund), but although Leipzig have already booked a place in next season's Champions League, manager, Marco Rose, will be demanding the DFB Pokal trophy from his side here this Saturday.

RB Leipzig also bring winning momentum into this cup final as Rose's side have captured six wins on the trot, four of which have also resulted in Over 2.5 goals and includes RB Leipzig's 5-1 demolition of Freiburg in the semi-final of this season's DFB Pokal, whom they also beat on penalties in last season's cup final.

Eintracht Frankfurt bring a much more modest sequence of results into this domestic cup final as they have managed to collect just four wins out of their last 18 matches in all competitions and includes seven defeats as well, so if current form is anything to go by, then Eintracht Frankfurt could struggle here on Saturday evening.

Interestingly, 12 of Eintracht Frankfurt's last 18 matches have seen both teams score while 10 of these last 18 games have also resulted in Over 2.5 goals, so further goals look to be on the cards at the Olympiastadion Berlin on Saturday evening.

However, Eintracht Frankfurt have impressed throughout the earlier rounds in this season's DFB Pokal as they have racked up a total of 15 goals in their five ties to date in the competition, seeing off Magdeburg, Stuttgart Kickers, Darmstadt, Union Berlin and Stuttgart, while three of these five cup ties also resulted in Over 2.5 goals as well.

Having finished the Bundesliga season in seventh place and therefore missing out on the European spots, Eintracht Frankfurt have reason to be highly motivated here this Saturday.

RB Leipzig v Eintracht Frankfurt Verdict

RB Leipzig will be looking to achieve back-to-back DFB Pokal wins on Saturday, this time at the expense of Eintracht Frankfurt whom they beat 2-1 in their last meeting in the Bundesliga towards the end of February this season and another similar scoreline could unfold at the Olympiastadion Berlin on Saturday night with RB Leipzig getting the nod and claiming another domestic cup trophy.

Goals could also feature as both teams have been involved in high-scoring games of late in all competitions which should make for an entertaining cup final.

Therefore, our main bet will be RB Leipzig win @ 1.70

Other side bets worth considering:

Over 2.5 goals @ 1.60

Correct score: RB Leipzig 2-1 @ 8.50
