UEFA Europa League picks for Eintracht Frankfurt vs. Barcelona
Before you tune in to Thursday’s match, you need to see the Barcelona vs. Eintracht Frankfurt picks from SportsLine’s European soccer insider Martin Green. After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Since then, his European soccer picks have been spot-on. Green has generated well over $37,000 for $100 bettors since the 2017-18 season, and he has his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe.
For Barcelona vs. Eintracht Frankfurt, Green is backing both teams to score for a -110 payout. Since acquiring Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang, Ferran Torres and Adama Traore during the January transfer window, the Barcelona attack has looked much more potent and it’s been a catalyst in turning Barcelona’s season around.
The Spanish giants have scored at least one goal in 22 of their last 23 games and have scored 15 goals in their last six matches. Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt showed in the first leg of this competition that it could be incredibly dangerous playing off the counterattack. It actually outshot Barcelona 16-7 despite having just 34 percent of the possession in the 1-1 draw.
Filip Kostic has been particularly good at creating chances by beating his man off the dribble. He’s created eight chances following a carry (moving five or more meters in possession of the ball) this season which is the most of anybody in the UEFA Europa League. Expect Kostic’s ability to create for himself and others off the wing to be critical in both teams getting on the scoreboard.
