Eintracht Frankfurt will host Borussia Monchengladbach at the Deutsche Bank Park on Saturday in another round of the 2025-26 Bundesliga campaign. The home side have struggled for results this season, with last season’s third-placed side now sitting eighth in the table, eight points adrift of the European qualification spots.
Following a wretched spell under interim boss Dennis Schmitt, during which Frankfurt suffered four consecutive defeats, Albert Riera was appointed as the new head coach of the Eagles. The Spaniard oversaw a 1-1 draw with Union Berlin in his first game in charge, with Nathaniel Brown’s 83rd-minute opener canceled out by their opponents just four minutes later.
Thanks for the submission!
Since marking their return to action after the winter break with a 4-0 dismantling of Augsburg, Borussia Monchengladbach have slipped back into familiar patterns and are now only three points above the relegation playoff spot.
The visitors faced Bayer Leverkusen in their last match and, like their weekend opponents, had to settle for a point as the game ended 1-1. Yannik Engelhardt opened the scoring in the 10th minute before their opponents drew level late in the half following a clumsy own goal from Philipp Sander.

Eintracht Frankfurt vs Borussia Monchengladbach Prediction
Die Adler head into the weekend clash on a nine-game winless streak, losing five times in that stretch. Despite this, they remain slight favorites for this one and will hope to gain a much-needed boost from their home advantage.
Die Fohlen are without a win in their last five matches and have won just one of their last eight. Their uninspiring form, coupled with their poor record in this fixture recently, could see the visitors’ difficulties persist this weekend.
Prediction: Eintracht Frankfurt 2-1 Borussia Monchengladbach
