FC Wolfsburg

Wolves had a very poor season, leading them to 16th place in the Bundesliga. One victory over Eintracht Frankfurt (0:2) in the last five meetings could not help the Jonker team to secure themselves from the relegation zone. They also lost to Hertha (1:0), Bavaria (0:6), Hamburg (2:1) and tied with Borussia Mönchengladbach (1:1).

FC Eintracht B.

Eintracht spent their season very well, finishing third in the second Bundesliga. Above them were only Hannover and Stuttgart, ahead of the yellow-blue by 1 and 3 points, respectively. Eintracht played its last 5 meetings almost stably, beating Bochum (2:0), Munich 1860 (0:1), Union Berlin (3:1), Karlsruhe (2:1), but devastatingly lost to Arminia (6:0), who needed points to avoid relegation to the third division.

Forecast

Eintracht have lost only 6 matches out of 34 for the entire season, which is a very good indicator. Yes, the opponents of the yellow-blues were not as strong as those of Wolfsburg, but the Wolves simply failed the season, relying on the strong individual qualities of the players. In survival games, when registration is at stake, in most cases it is the team that wins, which Wolfsburg does not have this season. Eintracht B. proved that he could defend well and work on the counterattack, which Wolfsburg allowed almost every team in the Bundesliga to do. That is why Eintracht B. is more likely not to lose big than the wolves have to beat them.

Prediction for the match Wolfsburg – Eintracht B.: handicap (+1.5) on Eintracht B.

the site presents its reflections on the first transfer match of the German championship of the 2016/17 season.

The hottest time has come in the German championship - play-offs for the right to play in the Bundesliga. On one side is Wolfsburg, for whom a relegation would be a real disgrace. On the other hand, Eintracht from Braunschweig. A team whose resources are not much stronger than Darmstadt and Ingolstadt, which were relegated to the second Bundesliga.

Tournament path

The fate of the former German Cup winner and Champions League quarter-finalist was decided in the last round of the championship. Before the final game day Andris Jonker's team was in rather hothouse conditions. “Wolves” suited a draw, but even a defeat with a certain outcome of parallel meetings could leave the team in the Bundesliga. But all this did not happen.

"Wolfsburg" went to play a direct joint on a visit to the "Hamburg". And the guys of Markus Gisdol were satisfied only with a victory, otherwise the “dinosaurs” would have a second entry into the delegation. Opponents in the first half exchanged goals. Almost until the very last minute of the second half of the meeting, two ones were on the scoreboard; they completely satisfied the "wolves". And in the 88th minute, Gian-Luca Walschmidt waved to Jonker and sent the Dutch coach and his team on an exciting journey through the play-offs.

"Eintracht", in turn, he could avoid transitional matches. With two rounds to go in the second Bundesliga, the Braunschweig club was in a very advantageous position. Firstly, he was quite a bit behind the two leaders – “Stuttgart” and “Hannover”. And here it must be clarified that in the 33rd round, the Swabians and the 96th played each other, so someone lost points. That is, in the event of their victory, "Eintracht" caught up with one of the teams. Secondly, Torsten Lieberknecht's guys had "Arminia" and "Karlsruhe" in their rivals - two clubs from the basement. What does “Karlsruhe” by that time said goodbye to all chances to stay in the second Bundesliga.

But things didn't turn out so rosy. “Eintracht” for the tour before the end of the championship away burnt “Arminius” with an indecent score of 6:0. Head coach opponent eventually became a YouTube star, his fiery pre-match setup is capable of starting a team for another season.

The final game day of the championship could no longer help Braunschweig. "Stuttgart" and "Hannover" took the top two places and returned to the Bundesliga, and "Eintracht" try their luck in two matches against the "Wolfsburg".

Team news

wolfsburg

This season has been very difficult for Wolfsburg. Two years ago, the team finished second in the championship and won the German Cup, a year ago, the "wolves" reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League. What can boast of the current composition of the team? Profitable sale of Julian Draxler, but resuscitation of Mario Gomez. In fact, these are all small achievements in 10 months. What's on the other side? Three coaches in a season, the dismissal of Klaus Allofs, a lot of money spent on transfers, a failure in the last round, which led to transitional matches.

At the beginning of May, everything was quite calm. After a home defeat by Bayern, the team quickly recovered. Andris Jonker first won a guest match against another “Eintracht” from Frankfurt, and then tied the match with the former head coach of the “wolves” Dieter Hecking and his “Borussia” M. Even the final match of the championship was going well. Quick Goal and draw before last minutes. Hold the team a little longer and on Sunday 21 May, every person from the club could have scored the last 10 months like a nightmare.

The fate of the team is in the balance. The defeat at the joints will turn into not just a shame, but a mass exodus of players from the club. Or do you think that Mario Gomez or the young Richadley Bazur came under the second Bundesliga?

Eintracht Braunschweig

Eintracht Frankfurt have recently played in the Bundesliga. The team spent the season 13/14 at the highest level, but according to its results, they took the last place and returned back to the second Bundesliga. The "lions" didn't manage to get back up right away. For two seasons, the team finished closer to the middle of the table - 6th and 8th places, respectively. Only in the third year, Torsten Lieberknecht found a resource and was able to cling to the fight.

The head coach of "Eintracht" is the club's biggest trump card. Lieberknecht has been here since 2003. Until 2007, he played for the team, then he worked as a youth coach for one season, and from the 2008/09 season he is already responsible for main team. Together with her, Lieberknecht rose from the third league, then won a ticket to the Bundesliga. No one is going to kick him out for lack of results. So the hamstrings of the "lions" will not shake. They simply have nothing to lose.

Key players

Mario Gomez

wolfsburg

Here we will not be original and will again note Mario Gomez. Who else? The defense of Wolfsburg is mostly symbolic. Suffice it to say that in the pre-match arrangement of “Kikker” three nominal midfielders live there – Vieirinha, Luis Gustavo and Yannick Gerhard. In midfield, only Maximilian Arnold can be noted with a kind word. That leaves Mario Gomez. And even then, the striker of the German national team began to score only with the arrival of Andris Jonker.

A week ago, we already cited these figures: since the beginning of March, SuperMario has scored 11 goals. Despite the fact that only once he scored a hat-trick. Everything else is one goal per match, that is, he scored almost all Bundesliga clubs. "Eintracht" from Braunschweig Gomez did not score. The season Breinschweig entered the Bundesliga, the striker left for Italy.

Dominique Kumbela

Eintracht Braunschweig

Eintracht Frankfurt's main star is striker Dominik Kumbela. Together with the club, he has already gone through fire, water and copper pipes. The union of Brainschweig and Kumbela began in the third league. There, the striker, with the help of 19 goals, helped the team achieve promotion. Over the next two seasons, the striker scored 29 goals, thanks to which Eintracht has risen to a higher level. Actually high level the performance of the African has slightly decreased, but nine goals in the Bundesliga is a very worthy result.

Further path “lions” and Domi Kumbela diverged. Neither side found happiness. The striker did not score, and Braunschweig could not get in the fight for a ticket to the Bundesliga. In the winter of 2016 there was a return prodigal son. It took half a year to grind, and already in the 2016/17 season, Kumbela knocked out his 13 goals, and his team managed to break into the play-offs.

Words before the match

“In the match against Hamburg, we lost for the fourth time, leading the match. In the current situation, we must calm down and prepare for Eintracht. Now it’s not enough just to play football well, the result comes first. We must win. The will to win and the team spirit come to the fore, it is worth noting that Braunschweig is doing well with this"

Andris Jonker
Wolfsburg head coach

.

"The team had a very intense season, my players gave 100% in every game. We spent a lot of effort and energy, so the medical staff had to work at the beginning of the duel with Wolfsburg. Of course, we would be happy to climb to the first Bundesliga following the results last tour so we don't have to wait another week, but we still have another opportunity to make history and write a new chapter."

Forecast and rates

25.05.2017 20:30

The meeting between Wolfsburg and Eintracht, in addition to the status of fighting for the right to play in the Bundesliga in the 2017/18 season, will have one more nuance: Wolfsburg and Braunschweig are only 30 km from each other, that is, the meeting of the teams has the status of a Lower Saxony derby. Of course, it is impossible to compare it with the games between Eintracht and Hannover, but there will be some spice here.

Wolfsburg's line-up is much stronger by name. In fact, the team was assembled for the Champions League, as a fallback - for the Europa League, and nothing else. Even in winter, three good players- Malli, Ntep and Bazur - almost best game teams from the second half of the table and two young talents from Europe. And the main center forward of all scores ahead German football. Relegation with such a squad would be a big blow to the prestige of the club. It will take a very long time to wash off.

“Eintracht” does not have such players, the team does not even have such opportunities when signing newcomers. For example, the main scorer of the club is well over 30 years old. But the “lions” have the same character and core, which is almost gone from German football. Let it look primitive, but at the right time it will not go away. And nothing depends on the mood there.

Forecast: 1-0

"Eintracht" is unlikely to bet on the first leg. A minimal defeat will suit them just fine. Here it is necessary for Wolfsburg to come up with something, because just one goal on the home field is clearly not enough. As practice shows, play-offs do not differ in effectiveness. So tune in to a large number of struggles, and goals will only be in the form of a bonus.

On May 25, 2017 at 21.30 (Moscow time), the play-off match of the German championship will begin, in which Wolfsburg will host Eintracht from Braunschweig at home. Footballtips expert Vedran Ostojic shares his prediction for Wolfsburg vs Eintracht Braunschweig with us.

Having lost 2-1 against Hamburger SV, Wolfsburg are now forced to fight to maintain their place in the German football elite through the play-offs. It is obvious that the defeat of the red pants cannot have a positive effect on morale. volitional qualities wolves. Nevertheless, Wolfsburg is obliged to beat its competitors in its field in order to feel more or less calm in the second leg.

Eintracht Braunschweig is coming into this clash in great shape as they have won four of their last five matches, having suffered just one loss with a score of 06 against Arminia Bielefeld. However, the representative of the Second German Bundesliga had problems on the road, so the expert doubts very much that something will change in this meeting. Thus, the obvious favorite of this match is Wolfsburg.

According to statistics, last time today's rivals met in the 2013/2014 season, when Eintracht Braunschweig played in the German First Bundesliga, and then he managed to score four points against the wolves. Away Braunschweig won 2-0, while at home it was a draw 1-1. However, as mentioned above, now Eintracht are experiencing problems in away matches, so the expert recommends supporting the hosts in this meeting.
