Borussia M’gladbach vs Eintracht Frankfurt Preview and Team news

Borussia M’gladbach Team News

Under the guidance of head coach Gerardo Seoane, M’gladbach has faced a mixed bag of results in their recent fixtures. Their last three Bundesliga matches have yielded a 2-1 victory against FC Augsburg, a 1-1 draw with VfB Stuttgart, and a 0-2 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen. These outcomes highlight the team’s ongoing struggle for consistency.

Injuries have compounded these challenges. Key players such as Rocco Reitz (toe injury), Franck Honorat (foot injury), and Alassane Pléa (muscular problems) are expected to miss the upcoming match. These absences have forced Seoane to change his tactical setup, particularly in the attacking third.

In the absence of Pléa and Honorat, the attacking onus falls on Tomáš Čvančara, who will lead the line. Florian Neuhaus is expected to play a pivotal role in linking midfield and attack, while the defensive pairing of Itakura and Elvedi will be crucial in containing Frankfurt’s offensive threats.

M’gladbach’s recent tactical approach under Seoane has emphasized possession-based football, using a 4-2-3-1 formation. The double pivot of Weigl and Koné provides stability, allowing the full-backs to advance and support the attack. However, the absence of key attackers has limited their offensive output, placing additional creative responsibilities on Neuhaus and Wolf.

Defensively, the partnership of Itakura and Elvedi has been solid, but vulnerabilities have been exposed, particularly against teams that employ quick transitions. The loss to Leverkusen highlighted issues in dealing with pacey wingers and counter-attacks.

Borussia M’gladbach predicted lineup vs Eintracht Frankfurt (4-2-3-1): Nicolas; Scally, Friedrich, Elvedi, Ullrich; Weigl, Reitz; Cvancara, Stoger, Hack; Kleindienst.

Eintracht Frankfurt Team News

Eintracht Frankfurt, managed by Dino Toppmöller, has also experienced a turbulent run in their recent matches. 

They secured a 3-2 win over TSG Hoffenheim, suffered a 0-1 loss to RB Leipzig, and most recently, a 1-1 draw against VfL Wolfsburg. The draw against Wolfsburg was particularly costly, as central defender Robin Koch sustained a shoulder injury that will sideline him for approximately four weeks. 

In response to their offensive struggles and the departure of top scorer Omar Marmoush to Manchester City, Frankfurt has bolstered their attack by signing Belgian striker Michy Batshuayi from Galatasaray. Batshuayi’s experience in top European leagues is expected to add a new dimension to their forward line.

With Koch’s injury, Toppmöller may opt for a back three, incorporating Jakić alongside Tuta and Theate. Batshuayi is anticipated to make his debut, spearheading the attack with support from Götze and Knauff.

Eintracht Frankfurt, on the other hand, has shown flexibility in their formations, oscillating between a back three and back four, depending on the opposition. The potential deployment of a 3-4-2-1 formation aims to provide defensive solidity in Koch’s absence while offering width through wing-backs Brown and Collins.

The acquisition of Batshuayi indicates a shift towards a more direct attacking approach. His ability to hold up play and finish chances will be pivotal, especially with creative players like Götze supplying passes. 

However, integrating a new striker mid-season poses challenges, and chemistry with the midfield will be crucial.

Eintracht Frankfurt predicted lineup vs Borussia M’gladbach (4-3-3): Trapp; Collins, Tuta, Jakić, Theate; Kristensen, Skhiri, Larsson, Brown; Knauff, Gotze; Ekitike.

Borussia M’gladbach vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction

  • Pick: Borussia M’gladbach won`t lose
  • Odds: 2.53 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Borussia M’gladbach 1-1 Eintracht Frankfurt

Considering the current form and injury concerns of both teams, I think that Borussia M’gladbach won`t lose in this match. M’gladbach’s home advantage and Eintracht Frankfurt’s recent defensive injuries, notably the absence of key defender Robin Koch, suppport this choice.

M’gladbach’s home advantage at Borussia-Park has been significant this season, contributing to their strong home record. 

Additionally, Frankfurt’s recent away form has been inconsistent, further supporting the likelihood of the hosts securing at least a draw in this encounter.
