Two of the teams involved in the incredible battle for the European places in the Bundesliga go head to head on Sunday, with RB Leipzig hosting Eintracht Frankfurt at the Red Bull Arena.
The hosts have been in sensational form during 2022 so far, and go into the weekend in a more commanding position than their visitors, who have improved over the last couple of weeks following a disappointing start to the year.
We say: RB Leipzig 3-1 Eintracht Frankfurt
With Leipzig enjoying a far greater period of rest and preparation heading into this clash, as well as performing excellently in the year so far, we are predicting a comfortable home win.
Frankfurt may have improved slightly in recent weeks but it has hardly been too convincing considering the calibre of their opponents, whilst Leipzig look back to their punishing best going forward, and their front line is likely to enjoy themselves on Sunday.

Bayer Leverkusen could well find themselves dropping out of the Bundesliga top four should they fall to another defeat when they travel to Wolfsburg on Sunday.
The visitors have suffered a sudden drop in form in recent weeks, whilst the hosts have still performed well below expectations all season despite a slight improvement in the last six games.
We say: Wolfsburg 1-1 Bayer Leverkusen
With neither side on a convincing run of form in recent weeks, we can see both failing to provide the quality required to come out with all three points on Sunday.
Wolfsburg have struggled for goals all season, whilst Leverkusen are missing their two greatest threats in the form of Wirtz and Schick, so although goals are usually expected whenever the visitors are playing, we can see there being a lack of goalmouth action here.

Matchday 27 in the Bundesliga concludes with title-challenging Borussia Dortmund making the trip to FC Koln's RheinEnergieStadion on Sunday.
The visitors cut the gap at the summit to just four points following their late victory in midweek, whilst the hosts picked up a narrow derby win last weekend to keep their European hopes alive.
We say: FC Koln 0-1 Borussia Dortmund
These are the types of fixtures that Dortmund usually slip up in, but after managing to grind out victories in their last two outings despite lacking defensive options, we can see them possessing the momentum and motivation to do so again on Sunday.
The hosts are a tough outfit to face and will be well drilled, so a tight affair looks likely and one goal may be enough to win it for either side once more.
