📋 Team News: Eintracht Frankfurt

Junior Dina Ebimbe (Stomach flu), Krisztián Lisztes (muscular problems), Kauã Santos (Cruciate ligament tear) and Mario Götze (Torn muscle fiber) will not be able to play for Eintracht Frankfurt boss Dino Toppmöller.

In all likelihood, Eintracht will possibly kick off with a 3-4-2-1 formation for this one and select Kevin Trapp, Tuta, Robin Koch, Arthur Theate, Rasmus Kristensen, Ellyes Skhiri, Hugo Larsson, Nathaniel Brown, Ansgar Knauff, Jean Bahoya and Hugo Ekitike.

ℹ️ Team News: St. Pauli

Elias Saad (Muscle injury), James Sands (Internal ligament tear), Jackson Irvine (Foot surgery), Karol Mets (Patellar tendon problems), Sascha Burchert (surgery), Sören Ahlers (Fitness) and Simon Zoller (muscular problems) are not ready for selection.

We’re of the thinking that St. Pauli could decide to play in a 3-4-3 lineup with a starting lineup of Ben Alexander Voll, David Nemeth, Hauke Wahl, Lars Ritzka, Manolis Saliakas, Carlo Boukhalfa, Eric Smith, Philipp Treu, Morgan Guilavogui, Danel Sinani and Noah Weisshaupt.

When taking all factors into account, Eintracht Frankfurt certainly have the ability to get the goals that they need when they come up against St. Pauli, who could well struggle scoring.
