On the 27th day of the Bundesliga, RB Leipzig (5th, 44 pts) received Eintracht Frankfurt (10th, 37 pts) this Sunday at 3:30 p.m. Large winner of Greuther Fürth (6-1), last weekend, the RBL, undefeated in its last eight matches in all competitions, thus had the opportunity to climb, temporarily, on the podium of the championship. But at the Red Bull Arena, Dominico Tedesco’s men had a hard time facing Kevin Trapp’s teammates, eager to chain a third victory in a row to get closer to European places.
In this clash of quarter-finalists of the Europa League, the two teams returned back to back at the break despite an overall domination of Leipzig and two amounts affected. Proceeding against, Frankfurt also got big situations but lacked realism to punish Nkunku’s partners. When they returned from the locker room, the locals pushed a little more but fell on a high-flying Trapp (47th, 62nd, 77th). Finally the score did not move and the two teams neutralized each other. With this result (0-0), the RBL temporarily climbs to third place. For its part, Frankfurt climbed to eighth place.
