Eintracht Frankfurt hosts Real Betis in the second leg of the Europa League 1/8 finals. The match will be played on Thursday, March 17th at Deutsche Bank Park (Frankfurt)
Eintracht Frankfurt is in good shape now. Last Thursday, Oliver Glasner's men were stronger than Betis (1-2), which is also having a good season. A few days later, they beat Bochum in the German Bundesliga (2-1). A draw with any score will be enough for the Eagles to advance to the Europa League quarterfinals. But if they lose by one goal, extra time awaits us. It's time to remember how Eintracht plays at home in the Europa League. In the last ten matches, the following results were recorded: five victories, two draws, and three defeats. Eight out of ten games ended with Over 2.5 goals scored. And the Eagles scored at least once in nine out of ten cases.

Betis will have to work very hard to qualify for the next round of the Europa League. Pellegrini's men need a 2-goal victory to advance to the quarterfinals after regulation time. If they win with a one-goal difference, we will see extra time. The Green-Whites should be in a good mood now. In the last round of the Spanish championship, they were stronger than tough Athletic Bilbao (1-0). Let’s recall that Betis has already played four away games in the current Europa League season. The team gained two victories and suffered two defeats. It is noteworthy that all four matches ended with Over 3.5 goals scored.
Six of the last seven home games of Eintracht in the Europa League ended with an exchange of goals scored. Beyond that, eight out of nine matches pleased the fans with Over 2.5 goals scored. Eintracht Frankfurt and Betis are teams of about the same level. Yes, the Andalusians were defeated in the first game. But the game took place at a time when they experienced a slight decline. As shown by the recent game against Athletic Bilbao, Manuel Pellegrini's men are in perfect condition. I am sure that they expect to qualify for the quarterfinals of the Europa League. Most likely, the Green-Whites will do what they do best this season: they will go forward from the first minutes. Naturally, I also expect goals scored from the hosts.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score — yes
