Paok vs Eintracht Frankfurt predictions and picks

Paok to win

Paok have started the Greek season reasonably well and are currently second in the league table. Their recent form has been impressive and they are unbeaten in their previous five fixtures in all competitions. They generally play their best stuff on home soil with their only defeat this season coming away from home. Frankfurt, meanwhile, are in a bit of a slump so all signs point towards a Paok victory here.

BTTS

Both of these teams like to get on the front foot and attack so on paper this should be quite an entertaining match to watch. Add in the fact that the pressure is off due to both teams having the cushion of three points, and the shackles should come off. Paok have scored a goal in eight of their last ten matches while Frankfurt have scored in seven of their last nine so expect action at both ends of the pitch.

Over 0.5 first half goals

Looking at recent results, both of these teams like to get off to quick starts. First half goals are common in games featuring Paok and Frankfurt which makes this appear like a safe market to back. There has been a first half goal in six of Paok’s last eight matches while the same can be said for eight of Frankfurt’s previous eleven games.

Paok vs Eintracht Frankfurt: Preview and team news

Paok

After finishing 4th in the Greek Super League last season, PAOK have had to come through several rounds of qualifying to reach the Europa Conference League group stages. They look good again this season, and played out a thrilling 2-2 draw away at Panathinaikos at the weekend which should give them confidence for the season ahead.

Eintracht Frankfurt

Eintracht Frankfurt have the most European pedigree in Group G and it was only two years ago that they became Europa League champions when they defeated Rangers in Seville. Domestically, it’s been a slow start to the season for them so they may well have to turn to European competition once again to try and rescue some momentum.
