THE PREDICTION
This meeting of European hopefuls has taken on extra interest this week following the news that Eintracht Frankfurt head coach Adi Hutter will move to Borussia Monchengladbach at the end of the season, replacing Marco Rose, who himself is heading to Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga managerial merry-go-round. Frankfurt will be hoping their excellent form does not collapse in the way that Gladbach’s did after Rose confirmed his departure, although they have overcome that recently with two wins and a draw. Eintracht’s games have rarely been dull this season - as evidenced last weekend by their thrilling 4-3 win over Wolfsburg - while Gladbach have failed to score just once at home in the league this term. Recent meetings between the two have also been entertaining, so expect a few goals in this one too.
