Eintracht Frankfurt
On Thursday, February 14, Eintracht Frankfurt managed to stay undefeated in 2019. The series has been extended to five games but does not show great results. It was four draws and only one win.Although at first a 2-2 draw with Shakhthar Donetsk of Ukraine may seem like a good result as it will allow Eintracht to take the field ahead of next Thursday’s 21 February in Frankfurt , by the second phase of the Europa League, ended up being clearly unsatisfactory by the circumstances.Eintracht Frankfurt took the lead in the first leg of the Europa League in just seven minutes (Hinteregger). He suffered the tie three minutes later in a penalty shot by Marlos. But a minute later, he had a numerical advantage. Stepanenko was sent off leaving the Ukrainians with ten.Only in the second half did the visiting team manage to take advantage of having one player over and scored again. Kostic rocked the net in five minutes. But he could not keep up. Taison, in the 22nd minute, tied the showdown.The series of equalities also compromised the performance of the Frankfurt team in the German Championship. After finishing the first round fighting with Leipzig for a place in the qualifying zone for the 2019/2020 Champions League, the fight is now to remain on the track leading to the next season of the Europa League.With 33 points (nine wins, six draws and six losses), Eintracht Frankfurt started the 22nd day’s race in fifth place.

Of the 30 points played in his arena, he won 17 (five wins, two draws and three losses). With 23 goals scored and 13 conceded, he is also fifth in the Bundesliga.In addition to the short interval between matches, coach Adi Huttler has many injury problems to manage for Sunday’s game. The defenders are David Abraham (11 matches in the 2018/2019 German League without a goal) and Almamy Toure (still without performances); and midfielder Allan (four games without a goal), Sebastian Rode (four games, no goal), Marc Stendera (seven games without a goal) and Lucas Torro (five games without a goal).
