Anthony Dabbundo gives his detailed thoughts, plus his top pick, for Friday's Bundesliga opening match between Eintracht Frankfurt and Bayern Munich.
My projections have Bayern as a 1.5-goal favorite, given I’m lower on Frankfurt than the market. Mané averaged 0.67 per 90 minutes in the Premier League. Apply an inflator of about 17% — based on historical averages — for him moving to the EPL and you get to about 0.8 per 90 minutes. The market has lowered Bayern a bit, based on league title odds. On the other, he did little else to provide value, through passing and pressing, at this stage of his career. Now, the Bavarians are without Robert Lewandowski and look to replace most of his production with former Liverpool forward Sadio Mané. Frankfurt will again be competing on two fronts in Bundesliga and Champions League, but an 11th-placed showing in the German top flight was even higher than underlying numbers suggested.
We go over everything you need to know for Eintracht Frankfurt vs. Bayern Munich on Matchday 1.
Regardless of history, Bayern is the safe pick here as they’ll look to get off to a flying start on their new campaign.
