RBL
Eintracht Frankfurt
  • Arthur Vermeeren is suspended after racking up five yellow cards. Assan Ouédraogo has suffered another thigh injury and will be out until the Spring. Eljif Elmas, Youssuf Poulsen and El Chadaille Bitshiabu are all ruled out for several weeks with muscle injuries.
  • Castello Lukeba will return in the New Year from a muscle injury. David Raum is recovering from ankle surgery, while Xavi Simons has likely played his last football of the year after suffering an ankle injury.
  • Marcel Wenig is on his way back from an ACL tear, while Aurele Amenda and Arthur Theate are both struggling with ankle problems. Hugo Larsson has a muscle injury.

Prediction

  • Eintracht had won five in a row in the Bundesliga, but drew at home to Augsburg after suffering an abject cup exit in Leipzig.
  • Leipzig enjoy 48 hours more rest and recuperation after taking on Aston Villa in the Champions League, while Frankfurt are in action against Lyon on Thursday evening.
  • After 19 games unbeaten, Leipzig have slipped nine points behind leaders Bayern with serious work to do to stay in title contention.
  • Buoyed by their cup success over the same opposition and extra rest, Leipzig can claim the three points with ease.
