Eintracht Frankfurt vs SC Freiburg Lineups & Team News
Injuries & Suspensions
Eintracht Frankfurt: Ansgar Knauff (Injured/out), Jessic Ngankam (Injured/out), Jeremiaha Maluze (Injured/out), Ritsu Doan (Injured/doubtful)
SC Freiburg: Fabio Muslija (Injured/out), Ryoya Yamamoto (Injured/out), Patrick Osterhage (Injured/doubtful)
Eintracht Frankfurt
Ritsu Doan missed part of training this week and is a late decision, so he could drop out despite being pencilled in. Jeremiaha Maluze faces a spell out with a thigh injury, joining Ansgar Knauff and Jessic Ngankam on the sidelines. There is better news elsewhere, with Farès Chaïbi and Oscar Højlund both back in full training.
SC Freiburg
No changes are expected from Freiburg after their impressive display against Borussia Mönchengladbach. Fabio Muslija and Ryoya Yamamoto remain sidelined through injury, while Patrick Osterhage is back in training and could make the bench, so Schuster looks set to keep faith with a settled XI.
