Fixture Analysis
Eintracht Frankfurt welcome Union Berlin to Deutsche Bank Park in Bundesliga (matchday 25). Kick-off is Sunday 9 March 2025 at 14:30 UK time.
Form Analysis
Looking at their last 10 matches, Eintracht Frankfurt stand at 4W 3D 3L — 1.50 PPG. Last five: D D W L L. Offensively they are averaging 1.60 goals per game, with 1.70 conceded. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.
Eintracht Frankfurt at home: 5W 3D 2L from their last 10 home games — 1.80 PPG on home soil. They are averaging 2.50 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. Both teams have scored in 80% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Union Berlin — last 10 games: 2W 1D 7L — 0.70 PPG. Last five: D W L L L. Their scoring rate of 0.80 per game is modest, conceding 2.10 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 2.10 per game is a high rate — their defence has been exposed regularly. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in just 30% of their games, reflecting a regular tendency to keep or record clean sheets.
Union Berlin's away record over their last 10 away games: 2W 0D 8L (0.60 PPG). Away from home they average 0.90 goals scored and 2.30 conceded per game. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 20% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel.
Eintracht Frankfurt carry the stronger recent momentum — 0.80 PPG ahead of their opponents on 1.50 vs 0.70. The form data is a point in their favour, and where the price allows, it is the cleaner directional bet.
Head to Head
The H2H picture is flat: the 6 H2H matches we hold have produced 2 wins for Eintracht Frankfurt, 2 for Union Berlin and 2 draws. Form and model data should carry more weight here.
The 6 H2H matches in our data averaged 1.8 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 27 Oct 2024, ended Eintracht Frankfurt 1–1 Union Berlin — a draw.
The head-to-head data offers no strong steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the model and current market pricing should carry more weight for this fixture.
Trading Patterns
Eintracht Frankfurt in-play and half-time data (last 58 games, 29 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 79% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 78% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 67% of those occasions; of the 16 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 44%; BTTS occurs in 72% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 59% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 43%.
Union Berlin in-play and half-time data (last 58 games, 29 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 62% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 67% of the time; of the 14 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 29%; BTTS occurs in 28% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 41% of games (away games); they fail to score in 48% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Eintracht Frankfurt 69% versus Union Berlin 40%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Eintracht Frankfurt 62% | Union Berlin 47%). Note also that Union Berlin surrender HT leads in 29% of cases while Eintracht Frankfurt recover from half-time deficits to draw or win 44% of the time — a dynamic that could influence in-play positioning.
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Eintracht Frankfurt 2.76 xG and Union Berlin 1.14 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Eintracht Frankfurt attack 1.289 / defence 1.074 | Union Berlin attack 0.757 / defence 1.395. League average goals — home 1.537 / away 1.401. Eintracht Frankfurt carry an above-average attack rating of 1.289 — their 2.76 xG reflects attacking quality above the league norm. Union Berlin's defence rating of 1.395 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Eintracht Frankfurt's projected output up. Union Berlin's attack rating of 0.757 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.14. Data: built from Eintracht Frankfurt's last 58 games and Union Berlin's last 58.
Result probabilities: Eintracht Frankfurt 71% | Draw 17% | Union Berlin 13%. Fair-value odds: Eintracht Frankfurt 1.41 | Draw 5.98 | Union Berlin 7.98. The model has a clear lean to Eintracht Frankfurt (71%) — a 54pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 75% | BTTS Yes probability 64% | Total xG 3.90. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 75% — a total xG of 3.90 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 64% — both xG figures (2.76 / 1.14) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Eintracht Frankfurt at 71% — clear model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support.
Poisson projects 3.90 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 75% probability — mixed conviction, supported by recent form (Eintracht Frankfurt's last 10 home games and Union Berlin's last 10 away games) averaging 3.7 goals per game — though the H2H data averaging only 1.8 goals per game across 6 H2H matches points the other way.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 64%. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Eintracht Frankfurt 80% (last 10 home games) | Union Berlin 20% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Union Berlin beat Eintracht Frankfurt 1-2 at Deutsche Bank Park, Regular Season - 25, in the Bundesliga. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Eintracht Frankfurt 2.76 xG and Union Berlin 1.14 xG, a combined 3.90. The scoreboard read 1-2 for 3 actual goals. Eintracht Frankfurt fell 1.8 short of their projected output. Union Berlin outscored their 1.14 projection by 0.9. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Eintracht Frankfurt attack 1.29 / defence 1.07 against Union Berlin attack 0.76 / defence 1.40, drawn from 58/58 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Eintracht Frankfurt 71% | Draw 17% | Union Berlin 13%, with Eintracht Frankfurt to win its most likely call at 71%. Instead the game produced a Union Berlin win, an outcome the model had rated at just 13% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 75%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 91% and landed. Over 3.5 was 55% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 64% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 54% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Eintracht Frankfurt 62%, Union Berlin 47%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 54%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Eintracht Frankfurt's trading profile (58 games, 29 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 69% of their matches — today it did.
Union Berlin's trading profile (58 games, 29 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 40% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
