The two previous games this season against Bayern Munich should give the Frankfurters courage. In the first half of the season, they won three points in a 3-2 win while in the end they lost 4-2 in the DFB Cup. “We showed in both games that we can pull off an absolutely top performance against such a top team. But we will also need them on Friday to create another little surprise,” says Arnautis.

But the guests from Frankfurt also started the back series in a convincing manner. In addition to three wins, they only had to admit defeat to SC Freiburg with 1:2. After the tight 1:0 against SGS Essen, the Eintracht women moved up to third place in the table. “That’s exactly what we dreamed of in the summer. When you’re so close now, you obviously want to play up there for as long as possible and defend the pitch,” says Niko Arnautis, looking at the tableau. But the coach also knows that a strong opponent is waiting for his team: “It is important to eliminate the strengths of the Munich team and bring in our own strengths. We want to embody Eintracht Frankfurt, play courageous and aggressive football and go beyond our pain threshold.”

In the top game against Eintracht Frankfurt, second in the table from Munich wants to continue its impressive winning streak in the 2022 calendar year. After the 4: 2 at TSG Hoffenheim, the hosts have four successes in the league in a row. “We know that Eintracht is a very good team coming to Munich. But of course we also know about our quality. It is important for us to bring our strengths onto the pitch in order to leave it as the winner with a focused performance,” head coach Jens Scheuer looked ahead to the duel on Friday evening. If they win at home, the Munich team could at least temporarily move past VfL Wolfsburg to first place.
