RB Leipzig vs Eintracht Frankfurt: match preview

A season that had promised so much now hangs on the outcome of one last game for Eintracht Frankfurt, who face RB Leipzig in the 2023 DFB-Pokal final at the Olympiastadion in Berlin today. The Red Bulls have been running riot recently, and come into this off the back of six wins on the spin and nine from their last 10, and their heavy artillery is going to take some stopping.

Marco Rose has opted for an attacking quartet of Christopher Nkunku, Timo Werner, Dominik Szoboszlai and Dani Olmo. That means that Emil Forsberg, who'd be a certain starter for most teams, has to be content with a spot on the bench. Nkunku will be looking to sign off on a high, though Andre Silva, who's also been linked with a summer move, isn't in the squad.

Frankfurt started this campaign with the thrill of Champions League football to look forward to. 10 months later, they're in a bind. They were in danger of a complete meltdown at the end of the season but managed to arrest the slide just in time to keep their Europa League hopes alive.

Win and they're in. Lose, however, and it'll be the Europa Conference League instead – and not even a guaranteed place at that. They'd have to navigate a playoff tie. In other words, it would be quite a step down, and if there's one fanbase you don't want to rub the wrong way, it's Frankfurt's. Oliver Glasner needs Randal Kolo Muani, the team's runaway top scorer and chief playmaker, to rescue their season.

The Frenchman spearheads a three-pronged attack, featuring the dangerous Daichi Kamada on the right, and Mario Götze, a man who knows a thing or two about decisive contributions in big finals, on the left. Make sure you know how to watch a RB Leipzig vs Eintracht Frankfurt live stream wherever you are in the world today.
