Eintracht Frankfurt
Eintracht Frankfurt have no fresh injury concerns going into the Hamburger SV game. The entire squad is fit, and Lilian Brassier is expected to remain at centre-back alongside Robin Koch rather than moving to left-back.
The one open question remains at full-back. Elias Baum is expected on the right, while Keita Kosugi and Nnamdi Collins are the alternatives on the left. Niko Ilicevic could be included in the squad for the match, while Jonathan Burkardt and Ritsu Doan are both expected to continue after starting every match of the recent run.
Hamburger SV
Five players are carrying knocks as Hamburger SV head to Eintracht Frankfurt: Nicolás Capaldo, Bilal Nadir, Fábio Vieira, Nicolai Remberg and Yussuf Poulsen are all doubts, and none is expected to start. Capaldo, who has started four of Hamburg's last five matches and twice played at right-back, already missed the defeat at Paderborn. Warmed Omari is expected to retain his place in the three-man defence.
Jordan Torunarigha is back in contention after returning to team training following a spell out with a muscle problem, and he could start instead of Shafiq Nandja in defence. Terem Moffi did not start last time out but is expected to return to the eleven up front. Miro Muheim, who has two goals and an assist in his last five appearances, and David Møller Wolfe are expected to continue providing the width through midfield.
