Eintracht is the main contender to finish this season in sixth place. Dino Topm?ller’s team had a good season overall, but the recent results have significantly worsened the Eagles’ position. The thing is, in the last four matches, Eintracht has only collected 2 points. Last weekend, the Frankfurt side predictably lost to Stuttgart with a score of 0:3, before that they drew with Werder (1:1) and Union (0:0), and also lost to Borussia Dortmund (1:3). Not exactly what was expected from this team.
If we talk solely about the second half of the season, then Augsburg can confidently be called one of the biggest surprises of the Bundesliga. A team that was close to the relegation zone at the start of the 2022/23 Bundesliga now seriously contends for a place in European competitions. Augsburg is in seventh place, trailing Eintracht by only three points. But if Bayer beats Kaiserslautern in the German Cup final, then the seventh position will also lead to the Conference League. So the stakes are incredibly high for both teams in the match against Eintracht. In the previous round, Augsburg defeated Union at home (2:0), and in the last 5 matches, they have collected 10 points.
