Training on Wednesday ✅🔜 🆚 SC Freiburg ⚽️#SGE
Eintracht Frankfurt come into the match on the back of a 2-2 draw at Schalke last weekend. Eintracht Frankfurt conceded a goal in the opening minute of the game but came back to score a goal 20 minutes later and take the lead in the 59th minute.
However, with time ticking away Schalke scored their second goal of the game and the match ended level.
The draw at Schalke means Eintracht Frankfurt are undefeated in 4 of their last 5 fixtures in all competitions. There have been wins over Mainz at home in the Bundesliga and against Stuttgart in the semi-final of the DFB Pokal.
Eintracht Frankfurt have been held to draws by Augsburg at home and Schalke away with the defeat coming at Hoffenheim.
Trends show Eintracht Frankfurt are unbeaten in 11 of their last 12 home matches in the Bundesliga. They have won 5 of their 9 most recent home Bundesliga games and have seen both teams score in 4 of their last 5 league fixtures on home soil.
Freiburg make the trip to Deutsche Bank Park having beat Wolfsburg 2-0 at home in the Bundesliga last weekend. It was a crucial victory in the race for the top four and Freiburg were forced to wait until the 71st minute to open the scoring.
Freiburg added a second 4 minutes later but had a player sent off in the closing stages.
The win over Wolfsburg ended a run of 3 straight defeats for Freiburg in all competitions. There were defeats at home against Leipzig and away to Union Berlin in the Bundesliga plus a heavy 5-1 defeat to Leipzig in the DFB Pokal semi-final.
Trends show Freiburg have not lost in 5 of their last 6 away games in the Bundesliga. However, they have recorded only 3 victories from their 9 most recent away league fixtures and both teams have scored in 3 of their last 4 Bundesliga matches on the road.
Team news and Eintracht Frankfurt are without the injured quartet of Lucas Alario, Kristijan Jakic, Philipp Max, and Hrvoje Smolcic.
Freiburg travel without suspended midfielder Nicolas Höfler following his red card last weekend. Daniel-Kofi Kyereh has a long term knee injury.
This is a huge game for Freiburg as they aim to move above Union Berlin into the top four.
We expect to see both teams find the back of the net and the day could end in disappointment for the travelling fans as Eintracht Frankfurt come out on top.
