RB Leipzig take on the visitors Eintracht Frankfurt in the final match of German DFB Pokal. The match will be played on Saturday, June 3rd at Olympiastadion (Berlin).
RB Leipzig have almost replicated the current season compared to the previous one, both in negative and positive aspects. Once again, there was a setback at the start, but this time they didn't struggle. Tedesco, the savior of the 2021/2022 season, was fired after a crushing defeat to Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League. His successor, Marco Rose, managed to quickly turn things around before the World Cup break. The ambitious club couldn't do without a slump in 2023. However, the coaching staff was able to motivate the team for the final sprint. As a result, they won 9 out of 10 recent matches, with the only exception being a 0-2 loss to Bayer. Among other victories, in the penultimate round of the Bundesliga, Rose gave a gift to his previous club by defeating Bayern Munich. And who can explain what happened to Borussia Dortmund, who failed to win in their home stadium last Saturday? RB Leipzig, on the other hand, finished in third place by defeating Schalke and secured their position well in advance. Additionally, by surpassing Borussia Dortmund during this period and crushing Freiburg, the cup winner advanced to the tournament final.

Eintracht Frankfurt are playing their final match under Oliver Glasner's leadership. Just like with his previous club, Wolfsburg, the Austrian is leaving prematurely. In early May, it was announced that his contract, which was supposed to run until 2024, would end earlier. Despite such circumstances, Glasner achieved results everywhere he went. He left Wolfsburg in fourth place, securing a spot in the Champions League. And at his new club, he immediately won the title, becoming the champion of the 2023 Europa League (and earning a Champions League spot). The results were not the best or the most consistent, but Eintracht Frankfurt reached the playoffs of the major European tournament. In the Bundesliga, even after the announcement of the departure of their current coach, they secured 7 points in the last three matches, ultimately winning the battle for the 7th position in the table. At least they will be represented in the Conference League. As for the cup, they took advantage of a favorable draw. It's enough to mention that they faced Union Berlin in the quarterfinals and then Stuttgart.
This season, the teams exchanged victories, and RB Leipzig ended Eintracht Frankfurt's long unbeaten streak with a 7-match run in February. There isn't much suspense to expect from this pairing. Eintracht Frankfurt is also a decent team, but it's unlikely they can pose a real challenge to the Bulls. We predict that Marco Rose's team will secure victory in regular time in the cup final.
Prediction for the match: RB Leipzig to win.
