Bayern Munich has easily dominated the domestic competitions this season, as they comfortably won the Bundesliga, and are now looking to make the double. They will only have to overcome a very feisty Eintracht Frankfurt side, whom they will be meeting at the German Cup final on Saturday. Eintracht Frankfurt is in the Cup final for the second consecutive season, and since they haven't grabbed any European tickets in the Bundesliga, they will be looking to pull an upset here.

Bayern Munich had mathematically captured the Bundesliga since quite a while now, and they had shifted their focus on the Champions League. However, they were unable to overcome Real Madrid in the semi-finals, where they were eliminated by 4-3 on aggregate. In their final league match of the season, Bayern Munich suffered quite an unexpected loss at home against Stuttgart, who did great to defeat them by 4-1. Even so, everyone at Bayern Munich was getting ready for the Cup final, where they will look for their fourth such title in the last six years. Since they were eliminated from the Champions League, Bayern Munich will have a chance to still make this a very successful season if they indeed win the Cup.

On the other hand, Eintracht Frankfurt was actually inside the top-six spots of the Bundesliga for a significant part of the season, but they somewhat deflated towards the end. They won just two of their last eight matches (2-5-1) and eventually finished at the 8th spot with 49 points, four behind the spots that grant entrance to the Europa League next season. They still have a chance to do so though, as capturing the Cup would give them a wild-card for next season. Eintracht Frankfurt also reached the Cup final last season, where they eventually lost to Dortmund by 2-1, so they will be looking to take advantage of this chance. However, they will have to address a couple of issues, as they have been terrible on the road lately (1-7-0) and have looked rather uninspired in the offensive end lately.

Bayern Munich vs. Eintracht Frankfurt German Cup Final Prediction 05/19/2018

Bayern Munich has of course dominated this match-up over the years (53-20-20), and even more so lately, as they haven't lost to Eintracht Frankfurt since 2010 (11-0-3). Eintracht Frankfurt are well aware of the fact that they simply cannot win the Cup by playing only defense, so they will have to reach out instead. I believe that we will see a high-scoring match here, and even if Bayern Munich win this, their opponents could score at least once.
