Player to watch – Hugo Ekitike
With Omar Marmoush out the door to Man City, French forward Hugo Ekitike has suddenly become the main man in attack for Eintracht Frankfurt and the 22-year-old could revel with in new responsibilities.

Ekitike has match-winning ability
Ekitike has scored in each of his last two Bundesliga appearances, which suggests he is ready to step up in Omar Marmoush’s absence and the versatile attacker could be a strong goal-scoring market candidate again on Sunday.
