Full-time: Union Berlin 0-3 Eintracht Frankfurt
Frankfurt pick up all three points at the Stadion An der Alten Försterei! The game was effectively sewn up within the opening 15 minutes thanks to a brace from Omar Marmoush, before Nacho Ferri completed the scoring late in the second half. Union have now lost each of their last 12 matches in all competitions, and there can now be no doubt that they are in a relegation battle.

Laïdouni drives over
Decent effort from Laïdouni, but his effort is always rising. That is probably his side's last chance of this match.

Handball denies Union
Urs Fischer's men think they have pulled one back through Fofana, but the Ivorian handled the ball before tapping over the line, meaning it doesn't count.

Behrens heads wide!
Laïdouni curls a cross into the goalkeeper and Behrens is there to meet it, but he can only nod wide of the post. A let-off for the visitors!

Half-time: Union Berlin 0-2 Eintracht Frankfurt
The visitors go into the break two goals ahead thanks to a brace from Omar Marmoush. Plenty for Union to do after the interval if they are to avoid a 12th straight defeat in all competitions.

Trimmel denied
Trapp produces a fingertip save to keep the right-back's effort out, although it may have been drifting narrowly wide of the post.

Becker tries his luck
The ball falls to the striker just outside the area, but he is unable to keep his effort down as it flies over the crossbar.

Union hoping for Frankfurt repeat
Union are yet to recover from a two-goal deficit in their Bundesliga history. However, their opponents threw away such an advantage just last week, in the 3-3 draw with Borussia Dortmund

Frankfurt two to the good!
Marmoush scores his second brace in as many games for the Eagles to put his side well in command before the quarter-hour mark. The forward is in loads of space in six-yard box and therefore has an easy task to tap home Larsson's cross.

Frankfurt already in front!
When it rains, it pours, or at least for Union right now! Marmoush is the goalscorer, firing low into the bottom corner to give his side the early advantage.

Home advantage
The last five Bundesliga meetings between these two have all been won by the respective home side: three victories for Frankfurt, two for Union.
Brothers reunited
This will be the first time that USA internationals Brenden Aaronson (Union) and his younger sibling (Paxten) will be on opposing teams as professionals. Frankfurt defender Robin Koch, currently a team-mate of Paxten's, played in the same Leeds United side as Brenden last season.
Red-hot Frankfurt
Eintracht have won seven points from their last three games thanks to wins over Hoffenheim (3-1) and Heidenheim (2-0), as well as last weekend's 3-3 draw with Borussia Dortmund. That's as many points as they collected over the first six matchdays of the season.
