Eintracht will be looking to maintain their advantage within the top four and put pressure on third-placed RB Leipzig.

Key Highlights

FC Freiburg Title Challenge?

After Bayern Munich could only draw away to RB Leipzig on Friday, Freiburg could cut their lead at the top of the table to 2 points with a win. This will be a massive boost for Freiburg after 16 rounds of fixtures.

Christian Streich’s side have demonstrated championship-challenging consistency in the Bundesliga this season, and they will look to carry this form into the home clash against Eintracht.

Eintracht’s Top Four Push

Oliver Glasner has guided his charges to a current top-four position. They are 8 points off the pace at the league’s top, and they are level on points with 5th-placed Union Berlin.

However, Eintracht will be looking to assert their advantage as they seek to solidify their stranglehold of a top-four position. 

A win over Freiburg will allow them to pull level with their Wednesday opponents and enhance their chances of climbing the table further while keeping the chasing pack at bay.
