Team news Eintracht Frankfurt
On Thursday night, Eintracht Frankfurt qualified for the Europa League final in Seville with a 1-0 win over West Ham United. They played well and were always in control of the game and the opposition, helped by an early red card for West Ham. Now Eintracht is in a European Cup final for the first time since 1980. A win there would not only be the greatest triumph in Eintracht’s history, but also a great chance to qualify for the Champions League.
In the Bundesliga itself, things are not going well for Eintracht at the moment and they are no longer in a position to qualify for a European Cup place. Therefore, Eintracht’s focus is on the match in Sevilla on 18 May. As Eintracht was still on the pitch at 11 pm on Thursday night to celebrate with the fans, it is unlikely that they got home later than 2 or 3 am. Therefore, many of the players who did not play against West Ham will start in the game against Gladbach – but those will also be exhausted from celebrating….
Team news Borussia Moenchengladbach
Gladbach also no longer has any great ambitions this season. However, it is important for the club to stay in the top ten because of the higher television revenue. They are currently in exactly that tenth place, one point ahead of their opponents Eintracht Frankfurt, so a defeat must be avoided at all costs. Coach Adi Huetter knows the Frankfurt team like no other. Until the start of the 20/21 season, the Austrian was still the Frankfurt coach himself.
He also led them to the semi-finals of the Europa League in 2019, where they then lost to Chelsea. Most recently, his Gladbach team showed an upward trend. Gladbach definitely has the potential, but they have had a lot of injury problems this season and often could not deliver their normal performance. Against a tired opponent from Frankfurt, Borussia will go full throttle from the start to win the game if possible.

Our betting tip for Eintracht Frankfurt vs. Borussia Moenchengladbach
The time between the final whistle of the semi-final and the clash with Borussia was very short for Eintracht Frankfurt. The players will be tired and it will be difficult for them to motivate themselves. The tension has to come off them first. The concentration phase for the grand final against Glasgow Rangers does not start until next week. Sunday is just a rest day for Frankfurt, combined with the inconvenience of a football match. But they are the favourites in this game. The market will certainly support Frankfurt even more than before because they are so prominent now. But the fact is that Borussia Moenchengladbach is not worse than Frankfurt, if not better. That’s why we bet on Borussia DNB with odds around 2.10, for example at Bet365. In the event of a draw, the stake is returned.
