Eintracht Frankfurt vs Liverpool Betting Tips
Our betting expert has three Eintracht Frankfurt vs Liverpool tips for Wednesday’s Champions League match at the Waldstadion (kick-off, 8pm). Scroll down for the analysis behind his selections.
- Hugo Ekitike anytime goalscorer @ 1/1
- Liverpool to win and over 3.5 goals @ 15/8
- Cody Gakpo to score or assist, Jonathan Burkhardt to score and Most Corners: Liverpool @ 13/2
Ekitike could come back to haunt Frankfurt
Beware the curse of the former player. Hugo Ekitike scored 22 goals in 48 games across all competitions for Frankfurt last season to earn his £69m move to Anfield.
The Frenchman started strongly on Merseyside but has been pushed out by Alexander Isak’s arrival.
Isak’s stunted form suggests the Swede could do with the evening off, while his colleague arguably deserves more minutes.
Ekitike has failed to find the net in his last five for club and country but will be raring to go on his return to Hesse.

Reds can respond to losing run
Liverpool’s 2-1 defeat to Manchester United on Sunday was their fourth in a row and first in the league at Anfield since September 2024.
It has been a bruising few weeks for Arne Slot’s men, but Eintracht Frankfurt might prove to be the perfect opponent.
Die Adler have won only one of their last five in all competitions. They began their Champions League campaign with a 5-1 win over Galatasaray, but followed with a defeat at Atletico Madrid by the same scoreline.
In fact, eight of their last nine games have seen both teams score and Sunday’s 2-2 at Freiburg was the ninth time in their 10 competitive games this season that over 3.5 goals have been scored.
Liverpool beat Atleti 3-2 in their opener before losing 1-0 at Gala. They might be struggling, but Slot’s front-line should be able to make hay against a defence that has conceded a Bundesliga-high 18 goals.

Gakpo can get in on the act again
Despite Liverpool’s woes, Cody Gakpo is arguably playing his best football since joining from PSV Eindhoven in January 2023.
The Dutchman has scored five times in his last four appearances for club and country and, with three Premier League assists for the campaign, is worth backing to have a goal involvement as the first leg of this bet builder.
Frankfurt’s Jonathan Burkhardt should also be considered, having scored in both of his team’s Champions League games and netted both goals at Freiburg.
Finally, have a look at Liverpool to have the most concerns in the match. Their 14 taken in the Champions League is fewer than only Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, both of whom have taken 15.
They won the corner count 9-4 against United on Sunday and this third leg provides something extra.
