Published on: Feb 20, 2021 2:58 pm IST|Updated on: Feb 20, 2021 2:58 pm IST
FRK vs BAY Dream11: A very interesting tie awaits us in the Bundesliga as Eintracht Frankfurt welcome league leaders, Bayern Munich. The home side is impressively 4th, at the time of writing, in the league this season. They can go 3rd should they beat Bayern Munich with a goal difference of 2 or more goals. Frankfurt is on a 4-game winning streak and has also won 5 of their last 6 games in the Bundesliga. Bayern Munich, on the other hand, will be looking to bounce back after a disappointing draw to Arminia Bielefeld last week. They still sit atop the table with a 5-point lead which could potentially be cut down to 2 points by the end of the game week should they lose this game.

FRK vs BAY Prediction, Team News, Starting XI
A) Frankfurt Team News
Injury Report, Unavailability: Djibril Sow will be unavailable due to suspension and will play no part in the FRK vs BAY Dream11 Prediction. Andre Silva has slight back issues but should be fine to face Bayern Munich.
Expected changes: Adolf Hutter should play the same side that beat Koln last week with a backline of Tuta, Martin Hinteregger and Evan N’Dicka. Sow’s suspension means that former Bayern Munich man, Sebastien Rode will start in midfield alongside Eric Durm, Makoto Hasebe and Filip Kostic Daichi Kamada and Amin Younes should keep their place right behind the striker. While Luka Jovic will be crying out for a start, Andre Silva is simply undroppable at the moment.
Frankfurt Starting XI (probable):
Kevin Trapp (GK)
Evan N’Dicka
Martin Hinteregger
Tuta
Eric Durm
Sebastien Rode
Makoto Hasebe
Filip Kostic
Daichi Kamada
Amin Younes
Andre Silva
B) Bayern Munich Team News
Injury Report, Unavailability: Bayern Munich are laden with unavailable players as Benjamin Pavard tests positive for Covid-19. Thomas Muller too awaits his negative Covid-19 test and will remain side-lined until that happens. Serge Gnabry, Corentin Tolisso, Leon Goretzka and Douglas Costa and Tanguy Nianzou all continue to remain out of action.
Expected changes: Pavard’s latest shocker means that Niklas Sule may shift to right-back as Jerome Boateng and David Alaba continue in the centre. Jamal Musiala could be called into action in the pivot alongside Joshua Kimmich. Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting was deployed in Muller’s position and should continue there.
Bayern Munich Starting XI (probable):
Manuel Neuer (GK)
Niklas Sule
Jerome Boateng
David Alaba
Alphonso Davies
Joshua Kimmich
Jamal Musiala
Leroy Sane
Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting
Robert Lewandowski
FRK vs BAY Today Match Prediction:
Paddy Power: Frankfurt – 3; Bayern Munich – 7/10
Sky Bet: Frankfurt – 16/5; Bayern Munich – 7/10
The FRK vs BAY Today Match Prediction is never a normal fixture. The last time the two sides met in Frankfurt, Bayern lost 5-1, which resulted in the sacking of then manager, Niko Kovac and Bayern went on to win 6 trophies the same season. In the last 7 matches between them, on 5 occasions, one of the sides scored 5 goals. This fixture was also played 4 times last season, and 21 goals were scored. While both teams will want to get all 3 points, not losing will be on their minds first.
Most Likely Result: Draw

FRK vs BAY Dream11, Captain & Differential Picks
Captain Options –
Robert Lewandowski – Arguably the most in-form player in the world at the moment, Robert Lewandowski has a goal-contribution in almost every game that he has played in so far. He has 25 goals and 6 assists in 19 starts in the Bundesliga this season. His shot conversion rate is 62.5% which is very impressive.
Andre Silva – Frankfurt has their own goal-machine in Andre Silva who has 18 goals and 2 assists in 18 starts in the Bundesliga. He has dispatched 39 shots on target and has a goal contribution every 86 minutes.
Kingsley Coman – Kingsley Coman has not gotten on the scoresheet in his last 3 games for the club but his ability has been undeniable this season. Sitting on 9 assists and playing alongside star players like Lewandowski and Sane, he is bound to get on the scoreboards sooner rather than later.
Differential Picks –
Filip Kostic – Kostic has been excellent this season and has been in brilliant form with 2 goals and 5 assists in his last 4 games. He has created 45 chances and whipped in 33 accurate crosses and will be one to watch out for on the flanks, given Bayern’s compromised defence.
Joshua Kimmich – Despite playing in a midfield pivot, Kimmich has managed to bag 10 assists this season and adds that depth to their attack. He has created 47 chances and provided 29 accurate crosses while also maintaining a pass accuracy of 90%.
