Eintracht Frankfurt team overview
Eintracht Frankfurt turn their attention to the UEFA Champions League after a remarkable 4:3 Bundesliga win against Koln on Saturday. In-form forward Jonathan Burkardt bagged a brace as the Eagles claimed back-to-back Bundesliga win.
A solid run of form sees the hosts now unbeaten in each of their last five games (90 minutes), including a much-improved defensive display in a goalless draw at Napoli earlier this month.
Both teams have struggled to keep clean sheets this season, and a similar outcome could be on the card on Wednesday. Eintracht have seen BTTS in six of their last seven Champions League matches with their clean sheet in Naples proving the exception to the norm. Frankfurt conceded at least one goal in 13 of their last 16 matches.
Head coach Dino Toppmoller is unable to call on a minimum of three first-team players this week.Hugo Larsson, Can Uzun and Oscar Højlund are definite absentees while Jessic Ngankam faces a late fitness test.

Atalanta team overview
Atalanta arrive in Germany looking to bounce back from a disappointing 3:1 defeat at Napoli lat weekend. Three goals conceded in the first half ensured a long journey home for the Bergamo-based side.
Unable to replicate the form of seasons gone by, La Dea have struggled to find any kind of form under new boss Raffaele Palladino. Atalanta failed to win seven of their last eight games, while they have slipped to defeats in three of their four most recent fixtures.
The Serie A side have picked up some positive results, with their only victory in eight previous fixtures a 1:0 road win against Marseille earlier this month.
Head coach Palladino has just two confirmed absentees for the trip to Frankfurt. Mitchel Bakker and Giorgio Scalvini are expected to remain unavailable for the Italians.
