Matchday 18 in the German Bundesliga sees bottom feeders Darmstadt hosting a sixth-place Eintracht Frankfurt side chasing European qualification. The home team comes into this matchup riding an ugly 10 match winless run with their last victory in a competitive match occurring in the beginning of October. Darmstadt are in last-place in the Bundesliga with two wins, four draws and 11 defeats for a points total of 10. The recently promoted team isn’t a lost cause, however, as they remain just a single point off of 16th-place Mainz and three points behind 15th-place Bochum. A win at home in this fixture would go a long way to helping them climb their way out of the relegation spots. The Lillies’ last match resulted in a heavy 3-0 home defeat to Borussia Dortmund. They were soundly outplayed in that game, giving up five clear cut chances while fashioning just one for themselves.

Eintracht Frankfurt come to town holding a Conference League qualifying position with their sixth-place league standing. The 2021/22 Europa League winners will be targeting qualification to the more prestigious competitions as they trail fifth-place Dortmund by three points. It’s been a decent season so far for Dino Toppmoller’s men who boast a 7-6-4 Bundesliga record and finished second in their Conference League group. They come into this matchup after stealing the three points with a 1-0 away victory against RB Leipzig last weekend. It was the side’s third league victory in the last four attempts and improved their away record to 3-3-3 on the season. Despite the win, Die Adler has really struggled to put forward quality performances as the away team. They had lost four in a row as the visiting team prior to their most recent win, one of those losses of which came against a lower-division team.
