Wolfsburg in search of back-to-back victories as Frankfurt visits.

After a win over Bundesliga debutants Holstein Kiel, Die Wölfe take on the Eagles, looking to pick up consecutive victories. Wolfsburg vs. Eintracht Frankfurt kicks off at 14:30 [GMT+1] on Saturday, September 14 at Volkswagen Arena.

Wolfsburg picked up their first league win of the season with a 2-0 victory over Bundesliga debutants Holstein Kiel. Maximilian Arnold [27'] and Sebastiaan Bornauw [30'] scored to secure the win for Die Wölfe. Ralph Hasenhüttl's side rose to 7th on the table with three points [1W, 0D, & 1L]. ‘We are very happy with the outcome of the game. I am proud of my team for this serious performance,’ Hasenhüttl said after the win. Wolfsburg were in action during the break, picking up a 2-1 win over Hannover 96 in a friendly game. Next in line for Die Wölfe is a home game against Frankfurt on Saturday, a team they have beaten more often than any other side in the BL [22 times], barring Stuttgart and Gladbach. The hosts are currently unbeaten in six games against the visitors [3W, 3D, & 0L], a longer run than they have against any other side. In addition, Die Wölfe have scored in each of their last 23 BL games against the Eagles, which is their longest run against any other BL side. However, the side from Saxony have lost five of their last seven league matches on home soil [2W, 0D, 5L], conceding three goals in each of those defeats. Patrick Wimmer, who was in action for Austria during the break, is expected to lead the line when Hasenhüttl deploys a 4—2—3—1. As many as six players are sidelined with injuries for the hosts, including Lovro Majer, Lukas Nmecha, and Bartosz Bialek.

Eintracht Frankfurt recorded a convincing 3-1 win over Hoffenheim just before the break, thanks to goals from Hugo Ekitiké, Hugo Larsson and ex-Wolfsburg attacker Omar Marmoush. The victory took the Eagles to 9th place on the BL table with three points [1W, 0D, & 1L]. 'I felt that we had the game under control,' was Dino Toppmöller's comment after the win. Frankfurt will set out on the road to take on Wolfsburg, with the aim of putting an end to a five-match away winless run [0W, 1D, & 4L]. All eyes will be on Egyptian forward Marmoush, who has contributed to 20 goals across 31 league games since signing for the Eagles from Wolfsburg last summer. Marmoush, who bagged a goal in Egypt's 3-0 win over Cape Verde, will be part of the attacking trio in Toppmöller’s 4—3—3, alongside Mario Götze and Ekitiké, who also scored for France U21.
