The 2025–26 Bundesliga season resumes after the winter break on Matchday 16, with Eintracht Frankfurt looking to improve their top-six chances with a win against title challengers Borussia Dortmund. This match on Friday in Frankfurt between the seventh-placed Eagles and the second-placed Borussen comes with our prediction of an away win.
Eintracht’s 25 points (W7, D4, L4) saw them go into the break one point outside the top six, while being just four points behind third. Dortmund’s 32 points (W9, D5, L1) see them start this round nine points behind leaders Bayern Munich, while boasting a three-point lead over third and fourth.
Eintracht were held to a 1-1 away draw by Hamburger before Christmas. That marked a third winless game out of their last four league fixtures (W1, D2, L1), seeing them drop in the European qualification race.
It could be a different story at this venue altogether, as Eintracht have three wins from their last four home league fixtures (D1).
Dortmund edged Monchengladbach 2-0 at home in their last game before the break. That extended their unbeaten league run to eight games (W5, D3). With just one defeat all season long, they are still the closest challengers to Bayern.
Their away form still needs a boost, as Dortmund have won only two of their last five league trips (D2, L1).

Our Eintracht Frankfurt vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction
Eintracht couldn’t have wanted the first-half break earlier, as they won only one of their last four league games. The drop in points saw them fall behind in the top six race, although with only four points separating teams from third to seventh, it’s still a close one. Dortmund have a nine-point gap to leaders Bayern Munich to cover. Of more concern would be the two teams immediately below, which are three points behind.
Dortmund have a strong historical record against Eintracht, which is why our Eintracht Frankfurt vs Borussia Dortmund prediction is Borussia Dortmund wins.
