Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Monchengladbach return to action in the DFB Pokal when they lock horns at the Deutsche Bank Park on Wednesday. Dino Toppmoller’s men head into the weekend unbeaten in their last seven games against the visitors since April 2021 and will be looking to extend this dominant three-year streak.
Eintracht Frankfurt failed to return to winning ways in the Bundesliga as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Union Berlin at the An der alten Försterei on Sunday.
Before that, Toppmoller’s men secured a 1-0 victory over Latvian outfit Rigas FS in their Europa League, where they have picked up seven points from the opening three games to sit sixth in the table.
Frankfurt, who have failed to win their last three Bundesliga matches, turn their attention to the DFB Pokal, where they kicked off their campaign with a 4-1 victory over second-tier Eintracht Braunschweig on August 19.

Gerardo Seoane’s men have now gone unbeaten in four of their last five matches across all competitions — picking up three wins and one draw — with a 2-1 loss against Augsburg on October 4 being the exception.
