Bottom three squad Eintracht Frankfurt (8-15-9, 33 points) and top contending team Borussia Dortmund (24-3-5, 77 points) are scheduled to meet at the Commerzbank Arena this May 7th, Saturday for a 2015-2016 Bundesliga contest.
Eintracht Frankfurt is currently at the top of the bottom three relegation area, two points ahead of Werder Bremen, who still has a shot of escaping demotion to 2. Bundesliga next season, and 11 points adrift of officially relegated side Hannover 96.
The team is tied on points with VfB Stuttgart but has a slightly lesser goal difference of -18 to the latter's -17. With two matchdays left this term, it is still not yet clear who will be the teams that will compete in the relegation playoffs.
Die Adler is coming off a much-needed 2-1 win over newly-promoted club SV Darmstadt 98 on the road at the Merck-Stadion am Bollenfalltor last Saturday, as reported by Vavel.
Winger Mario Vrancic opened the scoring at the 12th minute for Darmstadt with a right-footed shot from center box off an assist by teammate Marcel Heller, but the visitors were able to turn the tide in their favor as they scored two goals in the second half.
Frankfurt's Makoto Hasebe and Stefan Aigner netted a goal each at the 56th and 83rd minutes to complete the comeback win for manager Niko Kovač's side en route to a two-game winning run.
Meanwhile, Borussia Dortmund continued to hound league leaders and defending champions Bayern Munich with a lopsided 5-1 victory over Wolfsburg last Saturday at the Signal Iduna Park, via Goal.
Japanese winger Shinji Kagawa scored right at the seventh minute to immediately break goalless the deadlock while striker Adrian Ramos doubled the lead two minutes later.
Dortmund mainstays Marco Reus and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang continued the team's attack following the restart with the vice-captain netting one at the 59th while this season's second highest goalscorer pulled off a brace at the 77th and 78th to complete the five-goal haul of Thomas Tuchel's team.
Wolfsburg forward Andre Schurrle scored a consolation goal at the 86th to avoid a shutout.
The predicted result is a 4-0 romp for Borussia Dortmund.
