HJK will travel to Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday hoping to secure their first win in Group G of the Europa Conference League. The hosts are second in the group and sit two points above HJK in third. Eintracht Frankfurt have amassed three points after winning one of their two matches. Dino Toppmoller’s men began the group with a 2-1 victory over Aberdeen before falling by the same scoreline away to PAOK. This inconsistency is a reflection of the topsy-turvy form they have been in this season. Frankfurt have won only six of their 13 games across all competitions. Despite struggling to win, the Eagles have proved difficult to defeat. The German side has lost only twice this season. Frankfurt got back to winning ways last time out thanks to a 3-1 victory away to Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga.

HJK have hit a snag in recent weeks and arrive for this match without a win in three outings. The Finnish champions were defeated 2-1 at home by KuPS in the league and have now lost their last two games. Toni Korkeakunnas's men drew 1-1 away to Aberdeen last time out in the group. They will hope for at least a similar fate on Thursday to keep alive their chances of making it to the knockout rounds. HJK were defeated 3-2 at home by PAOK on matchday one.
