Eintracht Frankfurt will be pushing on with their quest for a higher finish when they host Wolfsburg on Match Day 28 in the German Bundesliga. The hosts have so far managed 50 points and are fourth in the standings, a place and four points below Wolfsburg ahead of this clash that will go a long way in shaping the top four. Frankfurt are coming from a key 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund, which gave them a seven point gap as they push for a Champions League place. They have the momentum, with just one loss and eight wins in the last 12 league matches and having scored in each of the last 23 matches across all competitions. Andre Silva has been key in this aspect and the winning goal against Dortmund was his fourth in the last five matches and 22nd in the league this season. Frankfurt have seven wins in the last 10 Bundesliga matches and in their 13 home league matches, they remain unbeaten, with seven wins; six of which have come in the last seven home matches. They are the fourth best performing home team in Bundesliga, having won 27 out of a possible 39 but need to improve defensively, having managed just one clean sheet in their 13 home league matches – in the 2-0 win over Köln.

Wolfsburg are looking to open up a seven-point gap on Frankfurt and heading here on three straight wins they’ll feel confident enough. They have the league’s joint best defence (22 conceded), but are the lowest scorers in the top five with 46 goals. Wolfsburg head to this game straight after a 1-0 win over Köln and have only one loss in the last 13 league matches, in which they’ve scored two or more in nine. Dutchman Wout Weghorst has been the star man at the team with three goals in the last four matches and 17 in the league. The team has failed to score in only two of their last 15 league matches and head to this game with three clean sheets in their last five. In the league this season, they’ve lost three matches, all away from home, with the side winning six of the 14 away games. Having won 23 out of a possible 42 points makes Wolfsburg the third best performing away team. In this game, they will miss another top performer in Brazilian defender Paulo Otavio, who is suspended. Otavio has played 18 league matches this season and in 11 of them, the team has kept clean sheets.
