Eintracht Frankfurt’s season-opener will be an away game at Eintracht Braunschweig in the DFB Pokal. Their first meeting in 10 years finds Frankfurt as favorites going into this first round fixture. Read on for our preview and prediction.
Braunschweig lost their last two home matches against Frankfurt and will be eyeing a better outing this time. Their targets for this game will, however, be curtailed by the fact their start to the new season hasn’t been great.
In their two matches so far, Braunschweig have suffered defeats and conceded a total of eight goals. They are coming from a 3-1 loss at home to Magdeburg. There will be some optimism in their camp though, seeing that they scored in both matches.
Braunschweig will hope that inspires them in a competition they won just two of the last 10 matches.
Eintracht Frankfurt have had a solid run in preseason and will hope to carry on here. They won five of their six friendly matches, but wrapped up with a 3-2 loss to Valencia.
The visitors didn’t have a strong ending to last season, winning once in the closing nine matches. However, we do not expect them to have a lot of trouble handling their hosts here. Eintracht Frankfurt have four straight wins against Braunschweig.
They will be looking to go one better than their run in this competition in 2022/23. Back then they got to the final only to fall 2-0 to Leipzig. The DFB Pokal is a title Eintracht Frankfurt have won five times, a run that solidifies their placing as favorites here. In nine DFB Pokal matches, they have seven wins.

Our Braunschweig vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction
Eintracht Braunschweig will go into this game as the underdogs and their poor start to the season doesn’t help. They have two defeats in as many matches this term, stretching their losing run to three consecutive games.
Their last six outings produced just one win and yet here they face a side that has beaten them in four back-to-back matches. Eintracht Frankfurt didn’t have a great finish to last season but are expected to start well here. Their recent form in the DFB Pokal supports this.
Our prediction for Eintracht Braunschweig v Eintracht Frankfurt is for Eintracht Frankfurt to win.
