This season, we see two representatives from the English Premier League in the semi-final of both the UEFA Europa League and Champions League. One of the teams involved is Chelsea and they have reached the semi-final of the Europa League where they will meet Eintracht Frankfurt.
The first leg of the semi-final tie will take place on Thursday 2nd May 2019 at the Commerzbank Arena in Germany.
The hosts have won this trophy once, with the success coming back in 1979/80 when the tournament was known as the UEFA Cup. That’s the only victory for Eintracht Frankfurt in major European competition although they have won the Intertoto Cup and finished runners-up in the 1959/60 European Cup.
Chelsea have tasted European success more recently than their opponents. The Blues won the 2012/13 Europa League and the Champions League in the previous campaign. They have also won the Cup Winners’ Cup twice and the UEFA Super Cup once.
However, past glories will count for nothing when the teams meet for the first leg but who will come out on top? Check out our Eintracht Frankfurt vs Chelsea predictions and [key]Eintracht Frankfurt vs Chelsea betting odds /key] below.
Chelsea are battling for a top four place in the Premier League to secure Champions League football for next season but could qualify by winning the Europa League. Their form in the competition this season has been excellent.
They have played twelve matches in total and one eleven of them. Some of the victories have been very impressive and the only dropped points in the group stage came at Vidi in a 2-2 draw. Overall, away results have been very good and Chelsea have won five of their six matches on the road.
In the knockout stages of the competition Chelsea have defeated Malmo, Dynamo Kiev and Slavia Prague away from home. None of these teams are at the same level as Eintracht Frankfurt but Chelsea have shown they can get the job done in away Europa League games.
Therefore, they are the slight favourites to win this game in the Eintracht Frankfurt vs Chelsea betting odds at 6/4 with bet365.
Eintracht Frankfurt are not far behind them in the betting at 7/4 to win the match with bet365. They have been impressive at home in the Europa League, winning five and drawing one of their six fixtures to date. The most impressive wins have come against Lazio, Marseille and Benfica, the latter of which was in the quarter-final.
The draw came against Inter Milan and you back the draw in this game at 23/10 with bet365. However, neither team has produced many draws in the Europa League this season, a fact which is worth keeping in mind.

2. Eintracht vs Chelsea Betting Odds
Eintracht Frankfurt have been good defensively when playing at home in the Europa League this season. They have conceded just 2 goals throughout the competition and have kept four clean sheets in six matches.
They will know that if they can keep another clean sheet in this first leg, it will set them up nicely for the second leg at Stamford Bridge, where an away goal could be priceless. You can get 15/4 at bet365 for Eintracht Frankfurt to win the game to nil.
However, Chelsea have a fantastic goal scoring record away from home in the Europa League this season. They have scored at least once in each of their six away games, including 5 goals at Dynamo Kiev and 2 goals at Malmo.
They found things a little more difficult in Prague during the quarter-final but still managed to get one goal in that game. The draw and both teams to score is on offer at 10/3 with bet365.
Eintracht Frankfurt have scored plenty of goals at home in the Europa League during the 2018/19 campaign. They have scored 2 or more goals in five of their six matches and 4 goals in three of those games, making them a very dangerous attacking team on home soil.
You can get 6/4 with bet365 for Eintracht Frankfurt to score over 1.5 goals.
