Eintracht Frankfurt take on the visitors Benfica in the second leg of Europa League quarterfinals. The match will be played on Thursday, April 18th at Commerzbank-Arena (Frankfurt)
Eintracht Frankfurt, who is very good this season, did not quite successfully played the first match with Benfica from Portugal in the UEFA Europa League quarterfinal, losing in Lisbon with a hockey score 2: 4. However, it should be noted that the representative of the German Bundesliga played with a man down from very beginning of the match, after Dikki got sent off in the 20th minute, and therefore the defense of the guests failed to recover, turning into a leaky sieve. But the offensive line did not succumb to the circumstances, leaving his team chances to enter the next round.

In my opinion, Eintracht will show itself in the second match in full glory, and perhaps even be able to win on the sum of two matches. After all, Adi Hütter’s wards at home are a very formidable force in the current season, for example, having won three victories at the Europa League group stage: Apollo from Cyprus, French Marseille and Italian Lazio. On top of that, the hosts have defeated the Donetsk Shakhtar 4: 1 in the round of 16 of the competition.
As for Benfica, they had recently had problems in a visiting duel with not the most status Croatian Dynamo Zagreb, losing to him in the Balkans with a score of 0: 1. And in general, the Lisbon usually do not look as convincing in matches on the road as they are in the “Da Luz” arena. This applies not only to international tournaments, but also to meetings of the Portuguese Super League.
I believe that Eintracht will take over Benfica here, thus continuing the established German football tradition - never give up in any situation!
Prediction for the match: Eintracht Frankfurt to win.
