"Pre-match quotes José Barcala: "Eintracht Frankfurt are one of the best teams in the league. We've got an important and difficult game to come. We're facing an opponent that plays in a very aggressive way and is especially good in transition. So we need to fully concentrate from the start and control their strengths." Barbara Dunst: "Frankfurt will be really up for this game. We need to prepare for an extremely hungry and motivated opponent. They showed incredible mentality in particular in the Bundesliga game against Wolfsburg. They'll play with lots of power, drive and an awkward approach at home.""
