The Bundesliga is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Eintracht Frankfurt take on an impressive RB Leipzig side at the Deutsche Bank Park on Saturday. Both teams can pack a punch on their day and will want to win this game.
Eintracht Frankfurt are in sixth place in the Bundesliga standings and have been fairly impressive in recent weeks. The hosts were held to a 1-1 draw by Borussia Monchengladbach in their previous game and will have a point to prove this weekend.
RB Leipzig, on the other hand, are in fourth place in the league table at the moment and have improved after a slow start to their season. The away side played out a 1-1 draw against Werder Bremen last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
