Nacho Ferri (Ankle injury), Sebastian Rode (Knee problems), Sasa Kalajdzic (Cruciate ligament tear) and Mehdi Loune (Cruciate ligament tear) will not be taking part for Eintracht Frankfurt manager Dino Toppmöller.

It’s our opinion that Eintracht could go for a 3-4-2-1 formation, utilising Kevin Trapp, Tuta, Robin Koch, Willian Pacho, Aurelio Buta, Eric Ebimbe, Hugo Larsson, Ellyes Skhiri, Omar Marmoush, Mario Goetze and Hugo Ekitike.

🗞️ Team News: Bayer Leverkusen

Due to a fully healthy squad to choose from, the Bayer Leverkusen boss Xabi Alonso does not have any fitness worries at all ahead of this clash.

It’s our belief that Leverkusen will likely begin the game with a 3-4-2-1 lineup with a starting lineup of Lukas Hradecky, Odilon Kossounou, Jonathan Tah, Piero Hincapie, Nathan Tella, Alejandro Grimaldo, Exequiel Palacios, Granit Xhaka, Jonas Hofmann, Amine Adli and Patrik Schick.

⚡ Prediction

Looking at these two teams, we feel that Eintracht Frankfurt will need to apply a lot of pressure to hit the back of the net against this Bayer Leverkusen side who will likely score at least once to gain the upper hand.

We’re therefore anticipating a very even contest with a 0-1 winning margin for Bayer Leverkusen at the end of the 90 minutes.

Should be a close one.
