The Bundesliga is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Eintracht Frankfurt lock horns with the struggling Bayer Leverkusen outfit in an important clash at the Deutsche Bank Park on Saturday.
Eintracht Frankfurt vs Bayer Leverkusen Preview
Eintracht Frankfurt are currently in eighth place in the Bundesliga standings and have been inconsistent this season. The hosts suffered a 3-2 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur in their previous game and will look to bounce back this weekend.
Bayer Leverkusen, on the other hand, are in 15th place in the league table at the moment and have struggled to meet expectations so far this season. The away side suffered a damaging 3-0 defeat against FC Porto this week and have a point to prove in this fixture.

Bayer Leverkusen have largely failed to impose themselves this season and have plenty of work to do ahead of this match. The away side are only three points away from the relegation zone and will need to turn their campaign around.
Eintracht Frankfurt have stepped up to the plate this season but have a few issues to address in the coming weeks. Both teams are on an even footing and we expect them to play out a draw this week.
