How things stand
Our first game on Sunday has the potential to impact things at both ends of the table. Hosts Eintracht saw RB Leipzig drop points last night and, currently sitting sixth, they could reduce the gap to Leipzig in fifth to four points. As for the visitors, they sit 14th and have a seven-point buffer to the bottom three. Victory will give them further breathing space, anything else could see them end the weekend fourth-bottom.

Head-to-head
Frankfurt have picked up just one win in their last seven meetings with Wolfsburg, losing four and drawing two. Their solitary triumph came in April 2021, when they edged a seven-goal thriller 4-3. Niko Kovač's side have also prevailed on their last two visits to the Deutsche Bank Park, and they will be eager to make it a hat-trick here.
Marmoush Frankfurt's danger man
Since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations, Omar Marmoush has been involved in all four of Frankfurt's Bundesliga goals (2 goals, 2 assists). That takes his season tally to nine strikes and five assists.
