Frankfurt have lost just four times in the league in 2025 whilst winning seven and drawing four - a sequence of results not too dissimilar to Leipzig's five victories, seven draws and three defeats in that time.

Although the Eagles fell 2-1 to Eintracht in the reverse fixture and 3-0 in the DFB Cup last 16, they'll be quietly confident of averting an unwanted season treble against a team whose star trio of Xavi, Loïs Openda and Benjamin Šeško have contributed a collective 45 goal involvements so far this term.

Frankfurt have kept three clean sheets in their last five games and welcomed first-choice goalkeeper Kevin Trapp back into the fold for the goalless draw at Augsburg on Matchday 30. Eintracht are also averaging a healthy 1.73 points per game under 44-year-old Toppmöller in 2024/25 - the ex-Bayern assistant's second full campaign in charge.

Lőw's mean return stands at an even rosier 2.33, albeit measured over just three matches in what is the first solo coaching role of his senior career. As an indication of his tactical acumen, the Hungarian, 45, previously worked under Thomas Tuchel at Bayern, just as Toppmöller had served as Julian Nagelsmann's able deputy before him.
