Eintracht Frankfurt-Borussia Dortmund is a match of the 18th day of Bundesliga and is played on Friday at 8:30pm: live TV, probable formations, prediction.
Nuri Sahin’s adventure on the Borussia Dortmund bench may already be at an end. The former deputy of Edin Terzic, who was “promoted” last summer after his divorce with the coach who was able to take the yellow and gold medalists back to the Champions League final, is officially on the gridiron after the resounding defeat suffered in the midweek round against newly promoted Kiel. Yet another disappointing away result for a Dortmund side that away from Signal Iduna Park in the first leg barely picked up five points (it is even thirteenth in terms of external performance).
Just a few days after the first home knockout with Bayer Leverkusen (2-3), Sahin’s men conceded as many as 4 goals (4-2) against the second-last in the Bundesliga standings, which before last Tuesday had only managed two victories. A real embarrassment that cannot be justified even by a few major forfeits. Borussia has once again rediscovered itself as very fragile in the non-possession phase (29 goals conceded since the start of the tournament) and has slipped to ninth place, increasingly distant from the positions that count.
Eintracht, goodbye Marmoush?
While there is talk of Sahin’s possible replacement – the clues seem to lead to former Manchester United Erik ten Hag – Borussia Dortmund faces another away game, this time at home to Eintracht Frankfurt, the league’s third force. The Adlers, unlike the Yellowoniers, scrambled Freiburg 4-1 in the midweek round, bringing home their second success of 2025 after the one with St. Pauli.
Eintracht, which has lost only to Mainz in front of its home crowd, is grappling with the Marmoush affair: the Egyptian center forward, who has 15 goals (he also scored one on Tuesday), could be bought by Manchester City in the next few hours and it is not certain that he will be on the field against Borussia Dortmund.

The Prediction
We expect a reaction from Borussia Dortmund after the Kiel slip-up but right now the yellow-and-whites give no guarantees. Eintracht Frankfurt, which has not lost to Borussia at home since October 2022, should therefore at least get a positive result in a match in which they will most likely score both.
