Borussia Monchengladbach vs Eintracht Frankfurt

The Bundesliga match between Borussia Monchengladbach and Eintracht Frankfurt at Borussia-Park will determine the European football placement for both teams on Saturday.

The home team stands at seventh place with 30 points but remains only three points behind RB Leipzig who occupy the final Champions League qualification position. Eintracht Frankfurt currently holds third place with 38 points after Wolfsburg drew 1-1 against them on February 2.

Borussia Monchengladbach secured a 2-1 victory against Stuttgart last Saturday because they outperformed their opponents by generating four big scoring opportunities to Stuttgart's single chance.

A successful outcome on Saturday will hold tremendous importance because Borussia Dortmund currently occupies fourth place just four points ahead of Leipzig while Leipzig occupies fourth place.

The Fohlen have registered 32 goals and allowed 30 goals during their Bundesliga matches this season which ranks them as the second-worst offensive and joint sixth-best defensive team among the top 11.

The matchup between Mainz and Eintracht Frankfurt has occurred twice this season with Mainz suffering 2-0 defeats in both Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal games before their recent two victories.

Borussia-Park serves the Fortuna team well in 2024-25 because they have achieved six victories from their ten home matches and a winning streak of six from their last eight home games.

Both teams last match resulted in 1.17 xG and three big chances.

Eintracht Frankfurt has established themselves a significant lead in the fight for Champions League football, trailing league leaders Bayern Munich by 13 points but leading fifth-place Stuttgart by six points.

With seven goals in their last five games since talisman Omar Marmoush joined Manchester City on January 25, Eagles head coach Dino Toppmoller will be happy with his team's performances in the final third.

Although they have won their past four games, Eintracht Frankfurt has lost their last three games, drawing two and losing one.

The team has lost four of their last six away games, drawn one, and won only one, indicating the visitors' dismal away performance in recent weeks.

Due to a foot ailment, midfielder Rocco Reitz is unlikely to play, therefore Philipp Sander and Julian Weigl may make a double pivot.

Given that they won't have center-back Robin Koch, the visitors might start a back three made up of central defenders Nnamdi Collins, Tuta, and Arthur Theate.
