HJK vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction & Tips
HJK and Frankfurt meet at the Bolt Arena in Helsinki in the fourth round of the Europa Conference League group stage.
The head-to-head record only goes back to the first leg, where HJK visited Frankfurt and lost 6-0.
HJK come into this match demotivated after a 6-0 defeat away to Frankfurt. The home side have opted for a traditional 5-2-3 formation, where the three most advanced players are: Topi Keskinen, Bojan Radulovic and Perparim Hetemaj. Even at home, HJK are likely to adopt a more defensive stance, given that they have an inferior squad. Matti Peltola and Lucas Lingman are likely to play in central midfield, with the latter responsible for leading his team’s attacks. Coach Toni Korkeakunnas won’t be able to count on Valtteri Moren and Dejan Iliev, who are currently out with medical problems.
Frankfurt go into this game motivated after a 0-3 away win at Union Berlin: Omar Marmoush and Nacho Ferri scored the goals in this fine victory. Frankfurt are a team that are very fond of aerial duels, and it’s in this area that they manage to gain an advantage over their “enemy”. When they go on the attack, they usually do so via the left flank, taking advantage of the depth offered by Philipp Max. The away side usually play in a 5-2-3 formation, where the three most advanced men are Ansgar Knauff, Fares Chaibi and Omar Marmoush. The visitors’ coach will be without Noel Futkeu, Mehdi Loune, Sebastian Rode and Simon Simoni as they are currently recovering from injury.
