Prediction: 1-1
Union Berlin
After suffering a heavy 4-1 loss to Bayer Leverkusen at their Deutsche Bank Park, Eintracht Frankfurt will look to give fans some cheer when they face Union Berlin in yet another home game. Die Adler are still sitting in the Champions League berth, but it has to be noted that several teams are breathing down their neck. New Man City signing Omar Marmoush has been sorely missed ever since he left the club and with midfielder Ellyes Shkiri missing out through suspension, home win should not be considered.
The capital club, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their three-game losing run. As Union Berlin are six points clear of the relegation zone ahead of Matchday 25, they should be happy with one point from Sunday’s encounter. Taking everything into account, there is a big value in betting on draw. All Kevin Vogt, Yannic Stein, Aljoscha Kemlein, and Robert Skov are out of contention with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Player (Ellyes Skhiri):
After spending his youth career at Montpellier, Ellyes Skhiri continued playing for la Paillade at senior level. In 2019 he moved to Bundesliga side Koln, signing a four-year contract with the Billy Goats. Shkiri was born in Lunel, France on May 10, 1995, but he has a dual citizenship as his parents are of Tunisia descent.
The Koln midfielder made debut with the Tunisian national team in a 1-0 win over Iran on March 23, 2018 and he represented Tunisia at the FIFA World Cup finals in Russia later that year. Ellyes Skhiri’s main position is defensive midfielder, but he is capable of producing fine performances at both right and centre back.
His preferred foot is right and he has a contract with Koln until June 30, 2026. The Tunisia international made his Bundesliga debut on August 17, 2019 in a 2-1 loss to Wolfsburg and he scored his first ever goal in the German top flight in a 2-1 win over Freiburg on August 31, 2019.
Highlighted Team (Union Berlin):
Union Berlin are a German football club originally founded back in 1906. Die Eisernen play home games at Stadion An der Alten Forsterei which can hold up to 22,012 spectators. Union Berlin’s home kit is red, with the team wearing white shirts and white shorts on the travels.
Union Berlin finished the 1923 domestic campaign as runners-up, with the team suffering a 3-0 loss to Hamburger SV in the title game. Speaking of the club’s biggest success in the German Cup, die Eisernen made it to the final of the competition in the 2000/2001 season. Schalke, though, proved to be a big catch for Union Berlin in the decider, with Jorg Bohme scoring a brace for die Knappen (2-0).
Union Berlin will face their local rivals Hertha in the 2019/2020 Bundesliga season as they secured promotion to the German top flight, but Hansa Rostock are considered the club’s main rivals.
