Borussia Monchengladbach will face off against Eintracht Frankfurt this weekend at Borussia-Park in the 11 round of the German top flight- the Bundesliga. Kickoffs on October 22 at 19:30 EAT.
Despite enjoying a decent start to life under the new management of boss Daniel Farke, it has been a testing few days for Monchengladbach who are placed in the Europa qualifiers spot with 16 points. Die Fohlen are clearing moving on an upwards trajectory under the 45-year-old’s tutelage, and they will sense a real opportunity to lay down a marker and move into the top four by beating Frankfurt
Monchengladbach will aim for improved results following 2-1 DFB-Pokal loss to Darmstadt in their last outing. In that match, Borussia Mönchengladbach managed 57% possession, eight shots with five of them on target and a goal scored by Luca Netz (48′). Darmstadt got 15 shots with four of them on target and goals by Phillip Tietz (23′) and Aaron Seydel (79′).
Frankfurt who is making appearance in the Champions League for the first time in their history this season will certainly not make it easy for their opponents after enjoying a very positive week. Glasner is on a two-game winning streak, and with even avoiding defeat on Saturday is potentially good enough to see them move third or fourth.
Eintracht Frankfurt heads into this meeting off the back of 0-2 DFB-Pokal victory over Stuttgarter Kickers in their last fixture. In that match, Eintracht Frankfurt had 63% possession, nine shots with four of them on target and goals scored by Randal Kolo Muani (11′) and Hrvoje Smolčić (17′). Stuttgarter Kickers got six shots with one of them on target.
