You can find out who will have more of the game in this match in our Dortmund – Frankfurt betting tip.
Dortmund booked their place in the quarter-finals during the week with a 2-0 home win and will now face Atlético Madrid. BVB played a courageous and committed home game against PSV right from the start and deserved to progress to the next round. They also shone in the league on the last matchday, consistently pulling off a 2:1 away win despite being outnumbered.
The last matchday was also a successful one for Frankfurt. After falling behind early on at home to TSG Hoffenheim, they showed morale and won 3:1, thanks in part to a red card for their opponents. Frankfurt did not have to play again during the week as they had already been eliminated from international competition. It remains to be seen to what extent Dino Toppmöller’s team have more energy than Borussia

Dortmund Form & Balance Check
Dortmund’s season has been very mixed at times, but the team has stabilized again in recent weeks. In the last ten games, Dortmund have drawn three, lost only once and won six times. The result is a fourth place, which would be enough for the Champions League. Borussia are now on a run of three wins in a row across all competitions, which they will naturally want to extend against Frankfurt.
White vest
Dortmund have already scored eight times this season. A special factor and reason for this success is regular goalkeeper Gregor Kobel. After recovering from injury, he is fit for action again and was recently able to demonstrate his skills in the Champions League when he denied PSV any chance of a goal.
Dortmund facts & analysis
- Three wins in a row
- Fourth place in the Bundesliga table
- Sixth strongest home team in the league
Frankfurt Form & Balance Sheet Check
Frankfurt are also in top form at the moment and fully on course for Europe. In the last ten games, they have lost just once, drawn four times and won five of their matches. They have now been unbeaten in the league for five games, with two wins in a row recently. The goal of the Europa League is currently the top priority for Frankfurt and they are right on target thanks to a very good recent performance
The Omar Marmoush effect
Omar Marmoush is currently the most dangerous attacking player at Eintracht Frankfurt. With 17 goals, he is Eintracht’s top scorer and is currently in very convincing form. In his last five games, he has scored three times himself and also set up three goals. If something goes forward, it goes through him
Frankfurt facts & analysis
- 6th place in the table
- Unbeaten in five games
- Won last two games
Edin Terzić will have to do without key player Sabitzer in the upcoming game (red suspension). Can will replace him in the number six position, otherwise a system with Nmecha at number eight is also possible. Ryerson will be back in the line-up after recovering from illness.
Dino Toppmöller will probably send the same team onto the pitch as last matchday. Knauff could move into the starting eleven for Chaibi after his convincing performance, and Max is also an option in place of Nkounkou.
