Form Guide
Eintracht Frankfurt — All Games: 3W 5D 2L from 10 Bundesliga outings this season, averaging 1.40 points per game. Last five: D D D D L. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 1.10 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. Eintracht Frankfurt have played only a handful of Bundesliga games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
In front of their own supporters this season, Eintracht Frankfurt have posted 4W 6D 0L at Frankfurt Arena — 1.80 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.30 goals scored and 0.60 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture.
Looking at all fixtures this season, 1. FC Heidenheim stand at 4W 2D 4L from 10 Bundesliga matches — 1.40 PPG. Last five: L D W L W. They are scoring at 1.60 per game and conceding 1.80. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. 1. FC Heidenheim have played only a handful of Bundesliga games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
1. FC Heidenheim's form when playing away from home: 4W 3D 3L across 10 road games this term (1.50 PPG). Away from home they average 1.70 goals scored and 1.60 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Eintracht Frankfurt 1.40 PPG, 1. FC Heidenheim 1.40 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
The BTTS market is worth targeting here. Eintracht Frankfurt register both teams scoring in 60% of relevant matches, 1. FC Heidenheim in 60% (using home/away splits) — both sides above the 60% threshold gives BTTS Yes firm statistical grounding.
In-Play Data
Eintracht Frankfurt trading profile (40 games, 20 at home): they score before half-time in 80% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 88% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 75% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 55% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 45% of games (home games).
1. FC Heidenheim trading profile (40 games, 20 at away): they score before half-time in 65% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 75% of the time; they lead at the break 45% of the time; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 40%; they keep a clean sheet 40% of the time.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Eintracht Frankfurt 65% versus 1. FC Heidenheim 50%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Eintracht Frankfurt 52% | 1. FC Heidenheim 58%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Eintracht Frankfurt 1.60 xG and 1. FC Heidenheim 0.91 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 0.719 / defence 0.743 | 1. FC Heidenheim attack 0.848 / defence 1.160. League average goals — home 1.921 / away 1.437. Eintracht Frankfurt's attack strength of 0.719 is below the league average — the 1.60 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Eintracht Frankfurt's defence rating of 0.743 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 40 Eintracht Frankfurt games / 6 1. FC Heidenheim games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Eintracht Frankfurt 53% | Draw 27% | 1. FC Heidenheim 20%. Fair-value odds: Eintracht Frankfurt 1.89 | Draw 3.70 | 1. FC Heidenheim 5.00. Eintracht Frankfurt hold a narrow Poisson edge at 53% — the draw (27%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 46% | BTTS probability 48% | Total xG 2.51. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 46%/54% — the total xG of 2.51 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 48% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Eintracht Frankfurt are the pick at 53% — moderate model lean. With a 27% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Eintracht Frankfurt offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.51 combined xG gives a 46% probability to Under 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.
Poisson assigns a 48% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. This conflicts with form data: Eintracht Frankfurt 60% | 1. FC Heidenheim 60% from recent games — a notable divergence.
