Eintracht – Dortmund

Frankfurt club at the home stadium will not lose to the representative of Dortmund

Last season, Eintracht held the bar for Germany's representative in European tournaments and made it to the Conference League by finishing seventh. After eight rounds of the current season, the Frankfurt club has shown remarkable stability, once again occupying seventh place. A distinctive feature of the team is a solid defence, which is the best in terms of goals conceded in the current Bundesliga. Borussia Dortmund did not experience the stress of fighting for European Cup positions last football year, but experienced the most serious disappointment of all clubs in the elite German division when they lost the title to Bayern Munich in the last round. The Bumblebees are now one of three clubs that have never lost at the start of the season and are one win away from the top spot in the leading group. Bookmakers have identified the guests as favorites for the upcoming meeting, offering odds of 2.15 on their victory. Eintracht have already played 14 official matches this season. Only once has the team played in the same competition in two meetings in a row, playing twice a week. Surprisingly, in such a busy schedule, the Frankfurt club lost for the first time only on the last day of September. After that defeat to Wolfsburg, Eintracht immediately lost to PAOK in Greece, but made the right conclusions. The hosts are on a three-match winning streak heading into the upcoming game, and on Thursday at Deutsche Bank Park, Finnish HIK lost to them with a resounding 0:6. Surely, such results will allow Toppmiller's players to believe in their own strength and try to swing a victory in the meeting with Borussia. Dortmund club in the current season lost only the match in Paris to the French champion. In other matches, the Bumblebees have repeatedly lost points, but have not conceded more than once. Terzic's team is also on a three-game winning streak. However, unlike the Frankfurt club, who had an easy outing against HIK, Borussia's players have worked hard for a win in Newcastle. Eintracht will certainly be helped by the opponent's moral fatigue and the factor of their own stadium.
