Paderborn hosts Eintracht Frankfurt in round 17 of German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Sunday, December 22nd at Benteler Arena (Paderborn)
Paderborn has lost 11 of its 16 games in the Bundesliga, and the team is in the last place of the standings. It is unlikely to save a place in the Bundesliga because the entire history of the championship doesn’t know examples when a team, having 9 points after the first leg, could transform after the break. Paderborn managed to gain only one victory against sinking Werder Bremen, having scored in the last minutes of that match. Paderborn is a team trying to play its football with everyone, but more powerful opponents punish it over and over again. There is no colossal difference between the teams in the upcoming match, so you should not expect a large number of goals. Paderborn plays more calmly with equal rivals than with obviously superior opponents.

Eintracht is the worst away team in Bundesliga. The Eagles have lost six of their seven away games this season, including each of their four. Eintracht is too close to the direct relegation, so this game is also very important for the team. Another thing is that the Eagles are in a quite disassembled state, and it is hardly worth expecting an excessive attacking game from them.
Both teams prefer to play open football with stronger rivals. Therefore, I do not see due to what more than three goals can be scored in this match. Eintracht has played with Over 3.0 goals scored only once in the last six matches (with Borussia Monchengladbach). Paderborn has played with such an outcome twice in the last six home games - with Leipzig and Bayern Munich. I expect fighting, equal, and sometimes boring game of the opponents who are in their worst condition.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.5 goals scored
