BERLIN, Oct. 7 -- Eintracht Frankfurt snatched their third consecutive win in all competitions after edging wasteful Hoffenheim 2-1 in the 7th round of Bundesliga on Sunday.

The "Eagles" staged a clinical chance conversion to secure the three points at Hoffenheim, who gave away a number of chances to suffer their fourth loss from seven games in the league.

Both sides started offensively minded into the encounter but as the match progressed Hoffenheim dictated the pace on the pitch.

However, the hosts had to wait until the 29th minute to create their first promising chance as Leonardo Bittencourt headed the ball to the woodwork from inside the box.

The "TSG" remained on the front foot and worked out their next opportunity 10 minutes later when Kerem Demirbay rattled the bar with an effort from sharp angle.

The hosts' wastefulness got punished later as Luka Jovic intercepted a throw in before passing into the path of Ante Rebic, who overcame onrushing Hoffenheim goalkeeper Oliver Baumann to break the deadlock.

After the restart, things got from bad to worse for Hoffenheim as Frankfurt doubled the lead with their next chance. Baumann parried a shot on target but allowed Luka Jovic to slot home the rebound from 14 meters in the 46th minute.

Frankfurt's Rebic weakened his team after receiving his marching orders for his second bookable offence in the 66th minute. The dismissal sparked hopes and Hoffenheim increased the pressure but neither Demirbay nor Ishak Belfodil was able to make the most of their chances.
