On April 19, Leipzig lost to Holstein Kiel in a disheartening 1-1 draw. Their last-place opponents took the lead just before halftime and were only kept from winning all three points by a late penalty from Benjamin Sesko.
It should be mentioned that the visitors' xG total of 42.8 in the Bundesliga is only the tenth-best number in the division, and they only created two significant opportunities from open play versus Holstein Kiel.
Zsolt Low, the interim manager, could, however, appeal to the fact that his team scored six goals in the two games before their tie with Holstein Kiel. In their previous three games, they had won two and drawn one.
With a Champions League spot potentially on the line, Eintracht Frankfurt will welcome RB Leipzig to Deutsche Bank Park for a Bundesliga clash on Saturday.
The Eagles sit third with 52 points after a goalless draw against Augsburg last Sunday, while Die Roten Bullen hold fourth place with 49 points, clinging to the last Champions League qualification position with only four matches remaining.
Eintracht Frankfurt struggled to create chances in their attacking third against Augsburg, managing no shots in the first half, with striker Hugo Ekitike missing a prime opportunity in the 77th minute.
The hosts have now gone two games without scoring and have failed to find the net in three of their last five outings.
Dino Toppmoller’s team currently holds a four-point lead over fifth-placed Freiburg, with the two sides set to clash in their final Bundesliga match on May 11.
Despite a recent dip in form across all competitions—with just one win, two draws, and two losses in their last five games—Eintracht Frankfurt have been stronger in the league, securing three victories and only one defeat in their previous five Bundesliga outings.
Their home record has also been solid, with three wins in their last four matches at Deutsche Bank Park. The only blemish during that stretch was a 1-0 Europa League defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on April 17.
Meanwhile, RB Leipzig’s interim manager Zsolt Low was last seen leading his side in their April 5, 2025, encounter against Hoffenheim.
