Each team's starting lineup from their previous match in this tournament is listed.

St. Pauli

In Matchday 15, Alexander Blessin's side defeated Stuttgart (1-0). This result extended the club's uncompromising streak to seven matches in the league (3 wins, 4 losses). The team is in 14th place in the Bundesliga standings, with a four-point gap from the relegation playoff zone. Notably, the club has scored only 12 goals in this championship, the worst among all participants.

• At least one opponent has failed to score in 6 of St. Pauli's last 7 home Bundesliga matches.
• No more than three goals have been scored in 6 of the team's last 7 home matches in the league.
• A goal in the first half has occurred in the club's last 7 matches in this tournament.

Eintracht

In the last round, the team lost to Mainz (1-3). Dino Toppmöller's side is experiencing a slump – Eintracht's four-match winning streak in the league has been replaced by a three-match winless run (1 draw, 2 losses). Disappointing results in recent games have significantly worsened the club's position in the Bundesliga standings – at the start of Matchday 16, the club is in 3rd place, with a five-point gap from the second spot, while their closest competitor, Leipzig, is only behind on goal difference.

• At least three goals have been scored in 6 of the team's last 7 away matches in this tournament.
• Both teams have scored in 6 of the club's last 7 away league matches.
• Eintracht has conceded at least two goals in 5 of their last 7 Bundesliga games.

St. Pauli vs. Eintracht: Match Prediction

Alexander Blessin's side has struggled at home in the Bundesliga – the team has won only once in seven home games this season (2 draws, 4 losses). One reason for these unsatisfactory results is St. Pauli's weak attacking performance – in those 7 home matches in this tournament, the club has scored only three times, with all goals coming in the match against Bundesliga newcomers Holstein Kiel (3-1).

Meanwhile, Eintracht has been more confident in their away league matches – the club has lost only twice in their last seven Bundesliga games (4 wins, 1 draw). During this period, Dino Toppmöller's side failed to earn points only against Bayer (1-2) and Leipzig (1-2), who are currently in the Champions League zone. 

I expect the visitors, who are in third place in the Bundesliga, to secure a victory in the upcoming match, but for insurance, I suggest the following prediction: Eintracht with a handicap (0)
