Team News

Eintracht Frankfurt
Mainz
  • Ellyes Skhiri, Omar Marmoush and Fares Chaibi are all away at AFCON.
  • Timothy Chandler is struggling with a calf injury.
  • Lee Jae-Sung is away at the Asian Cup with South Korea, while Andreas Hanche-Olsen is struggling with an ankle injury.
  • Striker Nelson Weiper is ruled out after a knee surgery.

Prediction

  • Mainz's home game last Friday was postponed due to snow and ice, so they should come into this short trip across the Main well rested.
  • Inconsistent Frankfurt tore champions Bayern apart 5-1 last month, but relinquished a 2-0 lead to bottom of the table Darmstadt last weekend to show their true Jekyll and Hyde nature.
  • After sacking Bo Svensson, Mainz still languish in a relegation playoff spot, and need wins fast.
  • Frankfurt should have the quality to comfortably win this local derby with goals expected at both ends.
