The latest from Global Football

The visiting Eintracht Frankfurt side should be favourites in this visit to Schalke 04, as the away team holds a 23 point advantage from their 27 league games this season.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only two days ago in the DFB Pokal. This match was also played here at VELTINS-Arena. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Eintracht Frankfurt have had more rest.
