Both Teams to Score – 8/11

Eintracht Frankfurt is rightly priced as the favourites for this bout. They are on a run of 12 straight wins, which extend over the Europa League group stage and the playoffs. However, 10 of those 12 outings involved goals on both ends.

So even though Eintracht Frankfurt can get it done and win, their defence is pretty weak, suggesting Rangers should have their chances to score at least once. Admittedly, you could argue that Eintracht Frankfurt’s previous opponents had more firepower, but we wouldn’t dare say that Rangers’ don’t possess attacking strength.

The Scottish club have scored at least one goal in all of their last 5 outings, including against Celtics (1-1), Leipzig (3-1), Dundee Utd (2-0), Ross County (4-1), and Hearts (3-1).

The UEFA Europa League final 2022 odds on BTTS show 8/11, which seems like a fair price, but we expected the odds to be lower. Therefore, this is a no-brainer pick for us.

Over 3.00 Goals – 12/5

We continue our Eintracht vs. Rangers betting tips with our second pick, which works mainly based on what was already said. Both teams are more than capable of scoring goals, but they are also relatively weak in the back.

We already mentioned how 10 of Frankfurt’s last 12 games ended with the Germans conceding at least once. And the Rangers are in a similar spot as far as their Europa League matches are concerned.

Across their last 6 UEFA Europa League outings, Rangers have conceded 6 goals – against Leipzig (3-1, 0-1), Braga (3-1, 0-1), and Crvena Zvezda (1-2, 3-0). And knowing that Eintracht Frankfurt is far more deadly in the attack than any of these three clubs, there is a good chance Rangers might struggle even more keeping their net untouched.

At 10/11, a bet on over 2.5 goals is a safer option. But we’re out for a higher payout and are on over 3.00 goals at 12/5!

Draw – 12/6

We end our UEFA Europa League final 2022 predictions with a bet on a draw at a very generous 12/6. The idea behind this bet is that even though Eintracht Frankfurt is considered stronger, they haven’t shown enough for us to believe they’re much better than Rangers.

Or better said, the Rangers have shown enough for us to see them as an equal team to Eintracht Frankfurt. Moreover, 5 of Rangers’ matches ended in a draw at 90 minutes, as did a third of Frankfurt’s UEFA Europa League outings.

Eintracht Frankfurt: The German Machine

Not many people expected Eintracht Frankfurt to reach the finals of the Europa League, but the German squad made it. Moreover, they’re the favourites and, by many, considered the only team adding to the UEFA Europa League final 2022 predictions list. And who can blame them?

Last season, Eintracht Frankfurt were solid, finishing just one point short of securing a spot in the UEFA Champions League. Unfortunately, this year the German club wasn’t nearly as impressive, as they struggled to keep themselves in the middle of the Bundesliga table.

Nevertheless, their performances on the international stage have been phenomenal and in sharp contrast to their domestic showings. Eintracht Frankfurt remains unbeaten across 12 outings in the Europa League, stretching over the group stage and the knockout matches.

Even more impressive is that Eintracht Frankfurt has beaten some European heavyweights, including Barcelona, who they eliminated in the quarters.

Rangers FC: Light Blues Looking to Reign Supreme

Rangers’ form at Ibrox was crucial for this team’s success and progress through the Europa League. The Scottish football club won 6 of their 8 matches on home soil, and in their last 2 outings, they had to overcome a 0-1 deficit from the first leg to win 3-1 in return against Leipzig and Braga.

Although an incredible record, the Rangers’ biggest achievement came in February, when they crushed (4-2) Dortmund, despite trailing 1-2 in return. But thanks to Rangers’ current top goalscorer, James Tavernier, they bounced back and jumped into the Round of 16, where a commanding 3-0 victory in Glasgow proved to be enough for a 4-2 win against Red Star Belgrade.

However, the incredible results can be attributed to the support of Rangers fans. Even the club’s manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst has admitted that the supporters played a crucial role in his team’s historic run.

“The interaction with the fans was amazing. I played so many games here as a player and from last November as a manager, but the atmosphere was incredible. That helped a lot,” said van Bronckhorst.

But will the help from the stands be enough for the Rangers to overcome the final obstacle and claim the historic title?

Head-to-Head

Eintracht Frankfurt and Rangers FC had met just once before, way back in the 1959/60 season, in the European Cup semi-final, when the Germans won the first leg 6-1 and the return 6-3, for a commanding 12-4 aggregate victory.

If we get only a fraction of the goals from their previous clash this week, we should be in for a cracker of a match. But even though we can safely expect a few highlights on Wednesday, the past stats don’t mean much, so it’s fair to assume we won’t see as many goals as 62 years ago.

Time and Date of the Match

If you’re betting on Europa League Final 2022, mark Wednesday, May 18 on your calendar, with the match set to kick off at 21:00 local time (CEST) at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán in Sevilla, Spain.

Being one of the biggest and most important football matches of the year, the UEFA Europa League final will be aired on all significant sporting TV channels and live streaming platforms. Moreover, the live streams will also be available on most online football betting sites, including Bet365 and William Hill.
