Mid-term conclusion:
After 45 minutes, Eintracht Frankfurt deserves a 2-0 lead against RB Leipzig! From the start, the Adlerträger were the more grippy team and kept putting Leipzig under pressure with early pressing and fast switching. Kamada (16th) and Rode (22nd) rewarded Frankfurt with the two goals and thus provided the 2-0 half-time lead. The game of the guests, on the other hand, is very error-prone and only poorly structured. Trapp spent a very quiet first half in the Eintracht goal. Leipzig coach Tedesco will have to find the right words in the cabin. See you soon!

Tooor for Eintracht Frankfurt, 2-0 by Sebastian Rode
The SBU increased! The goalscorer initiates the goal himself by taking Kolo Muani down the right flank. The attacker goes back into the box to Rode, who lets Kampl stand with a nice hook and aims for the short corner from ten meters. The ball hits the net with a slight deflection! Gulácsi is without a chance to defend himself.

18:53
The Frankfurt leadership has been absolutely deserved so far. RB hasn’t gotten into the game at all and is already losing a lot of balls due to simple mistakes in construction.

18:51
Kolo Muani goes down in the penalty area in a duel with Orban and wants a penalty. However, no contact can be seen, so the Frankfurter is more fortunate that he is not cautioned for a swallow.

Tooor for Eintracht Frankfurt, 1:0 by Daichi Kamada
This time it’s Kamada’s goal that counts! Götze initiates the hit with a great lob to the left five-meter corner, where Kolo Muani stands free, shows overview and crosses again with his head. At the far post, Kamada waits and heads the ball into the right corner. A great hit!

The ball is in the goal of the guests! That 1-0? No! Kolo Muani sends Kamada through the alley with a great pass. The Japanese completed the goal alone in front of Gulácsi, but was just offside when the ball was passed, which is why the goal rightly didn’t count.

For Leipzig, meanwhile, it was an English week. RB played against Teutonia Ottensen in the DFB Cup during the week and secured a place in the second round with a comfortable 8-0 win. Before that, the Saxons also had their first success in the Bundesliga when they defeated VfL Wolfsburg 2-0. Logically, the people of Leipzig want to take this momentum with them and add it away in Frankfurt. “Frankfurt didn’t win the Europa League for nothing. They have a very good starting eleven and quality from the bank. It will be a difficult task on Saturday. The current working atmosphere makes me optimistic that we will get our first win at Eintracht on Saturday “said RB coach Domenico Tedesco in advance.

With the home game against RB Leipzig, the hot phase of the season begins for Eintracht Frankfurt. Before Frankfurt celebrate their premiere in the Champions League next week, the top game against Leipzig is still on the program today. It will be important for the Adlerträger to be defensively more stable than in the previous weeks. “We have to move a little faster, anticipate and automate earlier. We started that two weeks ago and are right in the middle of this process,” thinks SBU trainer Oliver Glasner.

Welcome to the top game of matchday 5 in the Bundesliga! At 6:30 p.m., Eintracht Frankfurt welcomes the guests from RB Leipzig.
