Leipzig is better and they have scored one win, one draw and one defeat in the first three rounds, while Eintracht has lost twice and they have one triumph. Leipzig had to play the qualifiers for Europa League, which they opened with a defeat, as opposed to Eintracht, which made a triumph as guest. Last season, both teams celebrated with 2-1 at home in their mutual duels.
Eintracht has started a new season with the elimination from the Cup in which they were defending the trophy, while they made two triumphs in the championship, after two defeats in a row. This was definitely a bad start, but the overall picture was little improved by the victory in the first round of the group stage in Europa League. It was not expected that they would after all of this celebrate against Olympique in Marseille, after they received the first goal in the third minute.
In the second part they reversed the score, and the second goal for the victory was scored only a minute before the end and in the situation when they had lesser players on the field. Willems was excluded again, who also got a red card against Werder in the championship. Hasebe and de Guzman were refreshments in the team, but the heroes were reservists, assistant Falette and shooter of second goal Jovic. Now we again expect new refreshments and Tawatha goes on the left back.
Probable lineups Eintracht Frankfurt: Trapp – da Costa, Abraham, Ndicka, Tawatha – de Guzman, Torro – N.Muller, Gačinović, Kostic – Jovic
Unlike their host, Leipzig has started the championship a little bit better and after the first defeat in Dortmund, they played a draw with Fortuna, and then they made their first victory over Hannover. Leipzig did not allow any blunders in the Cup, but they lost in the first round of Europa League. They were not defeated in the qualifiers for that competition, and they had a balance of three wins and three draws, but in the first round of group stage they defeated Salzburg on their field. They lost with 2-0 in that duel and managed to annul the backlog, while they received the third goal in the last minute.
It is evident that they have problems in their defence and they easily receive goals, given that both Hannover and Bayern have shaken the net twice, while they received four goals in Dortmund. Coach Rangnick continues to make constant rotations in the starting lineup, so he made a whole lot of changes against Salzburg compared to the match with Hannover. He will now make new changes, but he will probably send stronger composition to the ground than in Europa League.
Probable lineups RB Leipzig: Gulacsi – Mukiele, Konate, Orban, Saracchi – Ilsanker, Demme – Kampl, Forsberg – Y.Poulsen, Ti.Werner
Both teams have weak defences and they both receive goals easily, while they are pretty good in attack, so in Frankfurt we expect a completely open match on both sides and that they will both play for the victory, which will bring goals in both networks.
Pick: both teams to score
