Team News

Leverkusen
Eintracht Frankfurt
  • Florian Wirtz picked up an ankle injury on Monday playing for Germany and remains a doubt, but barring late injuries, Xabi Alonso should have a near full strength squad at his disposal.
  • Kevin Trapp suffered a thigh injury and Robin Koch is struggling with a hip injury.
  • Marcel Wenig is on his way back from an ACL tear, while Oscar Højlund is ruled out for several months with a broken foot.

Prediction

  • Eintracht Frankfurt, champions in 1959, had won four in a row before a thrilling 3-3 draw with Bayern before the international break.
  • Xabi Alonso's record-breaking champions sit in fifth after frittering away an early two-goal first-half lead against promoted Kiel before the break.
  • Leverkusen easily did the double over Frankfurt last season and can edge this one on home soil.
