In a weekend match in week 19, on Sat Feb 4th, Eintracht Frankfurt plays host to Hertha BSC in a meeting of these two extremely mismatched Bundesliga teams.

Eintracht Frankfurt sits at 6th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-1 draw against Bayern München. Leroy Sané scored the first goal for Bayern München in the 34th minute, then Randal Kolo Muani tied it up for Eintracht Frankfurt in the 69th minute earning Eintracht Frankfurt a comeback draw. With 18 points in their last 10 matches Eintracht Frankfurt should be reasonably happy with their performance, while in their last match, 17th placed Hertha BSC, recorded a 0-2 loss against Union Berlin. Danilho Doekhi struck first for Union Berlin in the 44th minute on a feed from Christopher Trimmel, then Paul Seguin added another in the 67th minute In the end, Hertha BSC was frustrated by Union Berlin’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Union Berlin ended the match with the shutout victory. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 7 points in their last 10 matches.
In their last match together, Hertha BSC and Eintracht Frankfurt battled to a 1-1 draw. Suat Serdar struck first for Hertha BSC in the 3rd minute on a feed from Dodi Lukebakio, then Daichi Kamada got the equalizer for Eintracht Frankfurt in the 48th minute on a feed from Randal Kolo Muani squeezing out at least the one point for Eintracht Frankfurt.
