Eintracht have a big opportunity to book their place in the UEFA Europa League knockout stage in their own right with a win at Olympiacos FC on Thursday evening. Summer-like temperatures of 24 degrees await the Group D leaders in Piraeus – very different to Frankfurt, where the squad completed their final training session in rainy weather on Wednesday morning.
Among the 20 outfield players involved were Kristijan Jakic and Sebastian Rode, who missed the match against Leipzig at the weekend. However, Ajdin Hrustic and Filip Kostic were unable to work with the team due to knocks and instead did a light individual session. Like Christopher Lenz and Goncalo Paciencia, who remain sidelined, they will not join the flight to Athens this afternoon.
Squad
Goalkeepers: Kevin Trapp, Diant Ramaj, Jannik Horz.
Defenders: Evan Ndicka, Stefan Ilsanker, Martin Hinteregger, Almamy Toure, Makoto Hasebe, Timothy Chandler, Danny da Costa, Tuta, Erik Durm.
Midfielders: Kristijan Jakic, Djibril Sow, Daichi Kamada, Sebastian Rode, Jens Petter Hauge, Aymen Barkok, Jesper Lindström.
Forwards: Sam Lammers, Rafael Santos Borré.
