Borussia Dortmund Aim to Stay Undefeated Against Eintracht Frankfurt

As Borussia Dortmund prepares to face Eintracht Frankfurt, currently sitting 7th in the Bundesliga, the team looks to maintain their undefeated status. Despite Eintracht Frankfurt only winning two of their last five matches, Dortmund’s impressive performance against Newcastle and their five consecutive wins in the Bundesliga make them the clear favorites for tomorrow’s game. However, Dortmund faces some uncertainties as several players, including Julian Brandt, Emre Can, and Julian Ryerson, are listed as day-to-day.

Eintracht Frankfurt, known as this year’s “boring Bundesliga team,” has struggled to score goals, with only nine goals in total. Additionally, their solid defense has only conceded six goals so far this season. With Dortmund still fine-tuning their offense, it will undoubtedly be a challenging match to secure a positive result. Furthermore, Eintracht Frankfurt will undoubtedly seek redemption after last season’s fixture, which saw Dortmund emerge as winners with questionable refereeing decisions.

Player to Watch: Ellyes Skhiri

Ellyes Skhiri, once a Dortmund target, has become a vital asset in Frankfurt’s midfield alongside Swedish wonderkid, Hugo Larsson. Their partnership has proven formidable in front of Frankfurt’s backline, with Skhiri standing out as the stronger player. His defensive statistics suggest that he could easily secure a spot in any Bundesliga team, and he would undoubtedly pose a significant challenge for Dortmund’s midfield. Expect an intense battle between Skhiri, Nmecha, and either Ozcan or Can in the midfield.

Expected Lineup

I anticipate some rotation for tomorrow’s match, with Reyna, Haller, and Ozcan likely replacing Sabitzer, Fulkrug, and Can. With upcoming matches against Bayern next week and a DFB Pokal match against Hoffenheim in between, Terzic must carefully manage the players’ minutes, making this game an ideal opportunity for rotation. Unless a crucial goal is needed towards the end of the game, it is unlikely that Dortmund will risk playing any injured players. Besides those anticipated changes, I anticipate a similar lineup to previous games.

Prediction

I predict a close game with a 1-0 victory for Borussia Dortmund, continuing their winning streak. Expect a cautious and frustrating defense by Eintracht Frankfurt, making it difficult for Dortmund to break through. However, I have confidence in Dortmund’s ability to overcome these challenges.
