Frankfurt – Eintracht Frankfurt has to face Tottenham Hotspur in the Champions League after beating leaders Union Berlin in the Bundesliga.
The English top team with superstar Harry Kane in attack are the favorites in Group D, but after two games they only have three points on the credit side.
After a victory over Olympique Marseille, there was a late defeat at Sporting Lisbon, as a result of which the "Spurs" came to the duel in the Frankfurt Arena on equal points with the SGE.
Eintracht Frankfurt meets Tottenham Hotspur
"We have prepared well for our opponents and their style of play.
We showed the players longer video sequences, there was little time on the training ground.
We're going into the third Champions League game full of joy," says Oliver Glasner, coach of Eintracht Frankfurt, confidently before the game against Tottenham.
Captain Sebastian Rode shares the opinion of his coach: "The anticipation is huge!
Great opponent, this time at 9 p.m., really floodlit.
Like the coach, I see it too: we want to win!”
Eintracht Frankfurt: Mario Götze falls out
Mario Götze will definitely not be there against Tottenham.
"Mario will fail.
He has too much pain in his ankle.
On the other hand, Kristijan Jakic will be there again.
He left a good impression in training,” confirmed Glasner at the press conference before the game.
"His absence is a pity, but I have a lot of confidence in the quality of the players who are available to be able to compensate," continued the SGE coach.
However, Glasner does not reveal the system that Eintracht Frankfurt will play: “We looked at different formations against Tottenham.
They play a clear 3-4-3.
I prefer to play against this system 4-3-3, but there are several options.” There is great anticipation about the fantastic atmosphere in the Frankfurt Arena.
“The atmosphere here is always great.
I'm assuming another party night.
The weather is supposed to be good, both teams are in very good shape and tied on points.
In addition, a sold-out house.
Perfect conditions,” says Glasner happily.
Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt is bursting with self-confidence after three competitive wins in a row and wants to put the momentum on the pitch in the premier class against Tottenham.
Led by goalscorer Harry Kane, Tottenham want to make some bankruptcies in Frankfurt forgotten.
