St Pauli vs Eintracht Frankfurt prediction: Hosts set sights on another win

Key Stats

• St Pauli have won three of their last four games – the same number of wins as in their previous 20 outings.
• St Pauli are unbeaten across their last five home Bundesliga matches.
• Eintracht Frankfurt have gone eight games without a win away from home.
• Eintracht Frankfurt have won seven points from four games under new head coach Albert Riera.

Correct score prediction: St Pauli 2-2 Eintracht Frankfurt

Just a few weeks ago, St Pauli were one of the leading contenders for relegation as they sat 17th in the table, five points adrift of safety.

Since then, Alexander Blessin’s men have sparked a spectacular turnaround, winning three of their last four games – a run which has seen them move out of the bottom three.

Unbeaten in their last five home games, St Pauli will be feeling confident as they prepare to welcome a top-six chasing Eintracht Frankfurt side.

The Eagles are in the midst of a new manager bounce, with Spaniard Albert Riera picking up seven points from his first four games.

Sitting nine points adrift of the top six at the start of the round, Frankfurt have still got a lot of work to do if they are to fulfil their ambitions.

Picking up three wins from four is an unbelievable return for St Pauli, but it is even more impressive when you realise that two of the teams they beat were Stuttgart and Hoffenheim – top four contenders.

When it comes to injuries, head coach Blessin is dealing with several headaches ahead of this Sunday’s encounter.

Forwards Andreas Hountondji and Ricky-Jade Jones are both out of action with ankle injuries, while defender Karol Mets is carrying a calf problem.

David Nemeth is on the mend, but Sunday’s game might come a little too soon for the Austrian.
