Frankfurt vs Barcelona 07.04.2022

Frankfurt will take on Barcelona in Thursday’s Europa League First Leg Quarter Final tie. The German side are looking to replicate and even better their run to the Semi Final in 2018/19 season when they lost out to Chelsea. With 39 points after 28 games, Frankfurt are currently 9th on the log, meaning qualifying for European football via the League might not be possible. This means they will be putting everything on the table to remain in contention here.

For Barca, Xavi’s impact has been remarkable. As is stands, they haven’t lost a single game in all competitions since a 3-2 defeat to Bilbao in January. To stand a chance of clinching any silverware this season, they must take advantage of this first leg tie.

Barcelona’s current form puts them in a good stead heading into this fixture. Hence, we are backing them to score at least 2 goals here

Main tip: Barca Over 1.5 Goals (go to tip details)
