Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
RheinEnergieStadion will host Saturday’s football game between Koln and Eintracht Frankfurt, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Bundesliga table. The Billy Goats aim to bounce back from a 3-1 loss to Leipzig, and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against die Adler. Both Anthony Modeste and Julian Chabot are rated doubtful for the match following their recent positive tests for COVID-19.
Eintracht Frankfurt, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 2-0 loss to Wolfsburg. Die Adler, though, have been producing fine displays on the road this season, which is probably the main reason why we predict they will pick up one point from the match. All Diant Ramaj, Makoto Hasebe, and Ragnar Ache are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in 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.
