Going free with one more game in Germany, which looks quite clear to me. Eintracht's form is superb at the moment and the momentum is surely on their side here. 
Take nothing away from Schalke, their victory against Hoffenheim was well deserved and rewarded their good performance, but that is unlikely to change fortunes for them. 

Eintracht have in fact been one of the most consistent and hard to beat teams in the competition this season. Only Wolfsburg has drawn as many games in the campaign to date. There's been plenty of occasion where Eintracht's dominance was not turned into 3 points, but they've finally managed to overcome that by improving their defensive act. Frankfurt's gone to record 2 clean sheets in 3 of their last games, which is absolutely untypical for them and tells a lot about the team's current state. This boost has allowed them to take 3 points from trips to Augsburg and Mainz (who denied my pick on BVB win today with a 1-1 draw), plus let them beat Bayer 2-1 in between. 
On top of all that goodness, Eintracht is injury free heading into the game - another untypical thing for the team. Only winger Amin Younes is rated as a doubt - everyone else from the main XI are ready to roll, including hot in-form Adrian Silva in the lone striker position. 
The only highlight worth mentioning is Bas Dost' departure from the club this week. It means either a formation switch for Eintracht, or assignment of a more dynamic player to link up at the edge of 352 module for hosts. Someone, like Younes whom I've already mentioned. 

Despite the loud win against Hoffenheim Schalke's problems remain fundamental. Their squad is still hit with injuries and they are set to miss centre-back Sane, attacking mids Bentaleb, Mascarell and Paciencia (joined from Eintracht, by the way, before the season). 

I don't want to reflect on Schalke's miserable record and position in the table. Anyone remotely familiar with Bundesliga is aware how bad things are for the Gelsenkirchen outfit. The main idea is that Eintracht's current free-scoring shape and improved backline should be too much for Schalke to handle. They should be going home empty handed on Sunday.
