Full-time: Gladbach 1-1 Frankfurt

The home side went ahead early on through the in-form Robin Hack but were later pegged back by Éric Dina Ebimbe. Eintracht were much the better side after that and looked more likely to grab a winner, but in the end a point each suits both parties as Gladbach confirm their Bundesliga status for another year and Eintracht all but guarantee they will finish sixth and feature in a European competition (not yet clear which one) in 2024/25.

Seoane on Frankfurt

"Frankfurt play with high intensity and have a lot of pace up front. We’ve heard that Eintracht aren’t entirely satisfied with their season so far. They’re still on track to qualify for the Europa League again though. We’re facing a team with a lot of quality. We’ll need to be defensively strong, but, just like we did at the start of the game in Bremen, we want to show the courage to attack with purpose."

Toppmöller on Gladbach

"Both teams had a big upheaval before the season, both teams can achieve their respective goals for the season with a win on Saturday, at least from the current perspective. At Gladbach it's about celebrating staying in the league. For us it's about securing sixth place. We will do everything for that. With a good game and three points we can close the deal."

In this corner...

Gladbach lead the Bundesliga for goals from corners with 12 this season. Eintracht, meanwhile, are the only team yet to score any as a result, despite earning 145 corners in 2023/24.
