How both teams go into Eintracht Frankfurt vs Tottenham

Eintracht Frankfurt have looked good in the Europa League this season. The German side were one of eight teams to automatically qualify for the last 16 of the Europa League, finishing fifth in the group stage. They won five of their eight games, drawing one and losing twice. Eintracht Frankfurt were then given a potentially tough tie in the last 16 against former European champions Ajax. But they cruised through in the end, with a 6-2 aggregate victory. They also took the lead against Tottenham in the first leg, but had to settle for a draw in the end.

Tottenham also finished in the top eight of the Europa League group stage, sitting one point and one place ahead of Eintracht Frankfurt. They also won five of their eight games, but drew two alongside one defeat. Ange Postecoglou’s men had to work hard for their spot in the quarter-finals, losing the first leg of their last 16 tie against AZ Alkmaar. But a 3-1 second-leg victory did the trick. The Europa League is Tottenham’s last chance to secure European football for next season, so this will be their most-important game of the campaign.
