Recent Form: WLDWW
Augsburg has been showing strong form with three wins, one draw, and one loss. Their recent performances include notable clean sheets against Wolfsburg and Borussia Dortmund. They average 1.2 goals per game in their last five outings, reflecting a balanced attack. Despite a loss to Bayern Munich, Augsburg’s overall form suggests resilience and competitiveness as they continue to aim for a spot in European competition next season.
Augsburg’s key player to watch is undoubtedly Alexis Claude, who is their top scorer with 9 goals this season. His ability to create chances and finish with precision will be crucial against a formidable Eintracht Frankfurt defense. In midfield, Frank Onyeka and Kristijan Jakic are essential for controlling the tempo and breaking up the opposition play. Defensive solidity will be provided by Jeffrey Gouweleeuw, who has been pivotal in organizing the backline and maintaining clean sheets.
Expected lineup for Augsburg:
Key individual battles to watch include Alexis Claude versus Robin Koch and Samuel Essende trying to outmaneuver Tuta in the Frankfurt defense.
Augsburg will be missing some important players due to injuries and suspensions, which could have a significant impact on their performance against Eintracht Frankfurt.
Player | Injury | Expected return |
---|---|---|
Reece Oxford | COVID-19 | Unknown |
Yusuf Kabadayi | Knee surgery | Late May 2025 |
Player | Suspension | Expected return |
---|---|---|
Arne Maier | Red card | 2 matches left |
Reece Oxford’s absence due to COVID-19 and Yusuf Kabadayi’s knee surgery will diminish Augsburg’s defensive and attacking options, respectively. Additionally, Arne Maier’s suspension will further impact Augsburg’s midfield depth for the next two matches.
Injuries and suspensions will force head coach Jess Thorup to rely on his squad depth, which might test their resilience against a strong Eintracht Frankfurt side.
Understanding these challenges, Augsburg needs other players to step up and fill the gaps left by these key absences.
Augsburg Tactical Breakdown:
Coach Jess Thorup prefers a structured approach, focusing on balanced play through the midfield. The attacking midfielders, Claude-Maurice and Jensen, will aim to link up with Essende, ensuring a fluid transition from defence to attack.
Eintracht Frankfurt’s recent form has been a mixed bag. They have experienced two losses, one draw, and two wins in their last five matches across all competitions. Notably, they have managed clean sheets in two of these games but had a tough time in their Europa League bouts against Tottenham. Their average goal count sits at 1.00 per match in the last five outings, showing a relatively conservative approach up front.
Home team | Away team | Date | Competition | Result |
---|---|---|---|---|
Eintracht Frankfurt | Tottenham | 2025-04-17 | Europa League | 0-1 (Loss) |
Eintracht Frankfurt | FC Heidenheim | 2025-04-13 | Bundesliga | 3-0 (Win) |
Tottenham | Eintracht Frankfurt | 2025-04-10 | Europa League | 1-1 (Draw) |
Werder Bremen | Eintracht Frankfurt | 2025-04-05 | Bundesliga | 2-0 (Loss) |
Eintracht Frankfurt | VfB Stuttgart | 2025-03-29 | Bundesliga | 1-0 (Win) |
While they’ve had their ups and downs, Eintracht Frankfurt’s ability to score in 90% of their matches this season indicates a persistent offensive threat.
Expected lineup for Eintracht Frankfurt:
Eintracht Frankfurt’s key players include their top scorer Omar Marmoush, with 15 goals, and creative forces like Elye Wahi and Jean Bahoya. Hugo Ekitike will spearhead the attack, expected to challenge Augsburg’s defense, particularly Jeffrey Gouweleeuw. In midfield, Ellyes Skhiri’s defensive prowess could be crucial in disrupting Augsburg’s play, setting up intriguing battles.
The defense, marshalled by Tuta and Robin Koch, will face the task of neutralizing Augsburg’s top scorer, Alexis Claude. With Omar Marmoush sidelined due to injuries, the goalscoring burden rests heavily on Ekitike and Bahoya.
Eintracht Frankfurt faces several injury concerns heading into this crucial clash against Augsburg. The team will be without key players, which might impact their performance:
Player | Injury | Expected return |
---|---|---|
Kevin Trapp | Calf injury | About a week |
Eric Ebimbe | Gastrointestinal discomfort | About a week |
Eba Bekir Is | Knee injury | Mid May 2025 |
Mario Götze | Hip injury | Mid May 2025 |
The absence of Kevin Trapp is a significant blow, as his experience between the posts is unmatched. Eric Ebimbe and Eba Bekir Is add to the midfield problems, while Mario Götze’s creative flair will be sorely missed.
These injuries force coach Dino Toppmöller to rely heavily on second-choice players. The depth and adaptability of Frankfurt’s squad will be put to the test.
Eintracht Frankfurt’s Tactical Breakdown:
Frankfurt’s strategy usually involves leveraging the pace and creativity of their wide players. They aim to control the midfield with Skhiri’s defensive prowess, while Knauff and Bahoya provide width and crossing options for Ekitike up front.
The absence of key players such as Mario Götze may impact their midfield creativity, so expect a more direct approach with quick transitions and wing play.
