Eintracht Frankfurt head into the final round with their European hopes hanging by a thread after a difficult end to the campaign.

Albert Riera initially enjoyed a promising start after taking charge, but the Eagles have since fallen away badly, collecting just one point from their last four Bundesliga matches.

Their latest setback came in a 3-2 defeat against Borussia Dortmund, a result that allowed Freiburg to climb above them into the final European qualification spot.

Frankfurt still have a mathematical chance of reaching Europe because of their superior goal difference, but they also need Freiburg to slip up against RB Leipzig while ensuring they take care of business themselves.

Home form has also become a concern at the worst possible time. The Eagles are now in danger of losing three consecutive Bundesliga home matches for the first time since February 2022.

The hosts do not currently have any confirmed injury concerns, which could at least provide some continuity heading into this decisive encounter.

Stuttgart, meanwhile, know a victory would guarantee their place in next season’s Champions League group stage.

The visitors currently occupy fourth position, but only goal difference separates them from Hoffenheim heading into the final weekend.

Sebastian Hoeness’s side responded well to recent setbacks by defeating Bayer Leverkusen 3-1 last weekend after a three-match winless run.

Their attacking record has been one of the strongest in the Bundesliga this season, with only Bayern Munich scoring more goals.

However, Stuttgart’s away performances have been less convincing, with just 22 of their 61 league points collected on the road.

The visitors also have a suspension issue to deal with, as Atakan Karazor remains unavailable following the red card he received against Bayer Leverkusen.
