Jonathan Burkardt - Scores in defeat Burkardt scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 3-2 defeat against Bayern Munich.

Impact Burkardt found the back of the net Saturday despite taking just two shots. A goal against a top opponent in Munich is a nice return in such a hard match and a major point for Burkardt to build from. If he can stay healthy, Burkardt has shown the ability to be lethal going forward for Frankfurt.

Arnaud Kalimuendo - Scores in loss Kalimuendo scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 3-2 defeat against Bayern Munich.

Impact Kalimuendo found the back of the net during one of the hardest matches of the season, scoring on his only shot on goal against Bayern Munich. The forward was excellent with limited chances against a top team, and looks to be back to his best now that he's fit. Kalimuendo will hope to carry this form into some more manageable matches.

Arnaud Kalimuendo - Finds bench role Kalimuendo (shoulder) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Bayern.

Impact Kalimuendo finds a bench role for Saturday's clash after recovering from the shoulder injury he suffered against Gladbach. He returned to training on Wednesday but is not yet at full fitness and is eased back into action as a substitute option. Even so his availability remains a positive for the Eagles given his importance since arriving in the winter transfer window.

Fares Chaibi - Option off bench Chaibi (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Bayern.

Impact Chaibi is available off the bench for Sunday's clash against Bayern after recovering from the minor knock that ruled him out against Gladbach. The midfielder returned to full team training on Wednesday but is not included in the starting XI. With new coach Albert Riera now in charge, his role moving forward remains to be defined.

Jonathan Burkardt - Back on bench Burkardt (calf) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Bayern.

Impact Burkardt is back on the bench after spending several months sidelined with a calf injury and recent weeks out due to illness. The striker resumed full team training in recent weeks and is included in the squad for Saturday's showdown with the Bavarians. His return strengthens the Eagles' attacking depth as he competes with Arnaud Kalimuendo for the number nine role.

Robin Koch - Out with illness Koch is out for Saturday's match against Bayern Munich due to an illness, according to manager Alber Riera. " Robin has an elevated temperature and is not there."

Impact Koch will not be with his club this week after an illness to end the week, cutting his chances of seeing the field. He has yet to miss a start all season, so this is a major loss for the club, losing a regular defender. This leaves the club with minimal defenders left, likely forcing a formation change or a midfielder to start in the defense.

Fares Chaibi - Should be back against Bayern Chaibi (undisclosed) trained with the team Wednesday and should be an option for Saturday's clash against Bayern, according to BILD.

Impact Chaibi has shaken off the minor knock that sidelined him last week and kept him out of the showdown against Gladbach. The midfielder returned to full team training on Wednesday and is trending toward being available for Sunday's clash against Bayern. Chaibi has been a regular in the starting XI for the Eagles this season, but with new coach Albert Riera now at the helm, his exact role in the upcoming fixtures is still up in the air.

Jonathan Burkardt - Should be available Saturday Burkardt (calf) trained normally Wednesday and should be an option for Saturday's clash against Bayern, according to BILD.

Impact Burkardt is in line to make his return after spending several months on the shelf with a calf injury, having ramped things up in team training over the past few weeks. The striker has trained normally Wednesday with the team and is trending toward a spot in the squad for Saturday's showdown with the Bavarians. That's a major boost for the Eagles, who get a proven presence back up top, though Burkardt now walks into a real battle with Arnaud Kalimuendo for the number nine role.

Arnaud Kalimuendo - Trains with team Wednesday Kalimuendo (shoulder) was spotted training with the team Wednesday, the club posted.

Impact Kalimuendo picked up a shoulder injury in Saturday's win over Gladbach, but it turned out to be minor as the striker was back in training with the squad on Wednesday. That is a major boost for the Eagles given he has locked down a starting spot since arriving in the winter transfer window and quickly established himself as a key piece of the attack. He is now expected to slide right back into his usual role in the upcoming fixtures without any real limitations.

Rasmus Kristensen - Could miss rest of season Kristensen (ankle) could miss the rest of the season since he is set to undergo a surgery in the coming days, according to BILD.

Impact Kristensen went down with a serious ankle injury in Saturday's showdown with Gladbach, and follow-up tests confirmed he's headed for surgery. The setback could sideline the defender for the remainder of the campaign with the Eagles, though his 2026 World Cup hopes are still alive for now. Before the injury, Kristensen had been a locked-in starter, making the starting XI in 18 of his 19 Bundesliga outings, chipping in with two goal contributions while stacking up 45 tackles and 55 clearances. With him out of the mix, expect Aurele Amenda to log heavier minutes in the back three, while Ritsu Doan could see an expanded role operating down the right flank.

Ansgar Knauff - Receives abdominal surgery Knauff is out for the time being due to abdominal surgery, according to his club.

Impact Knauff is going to be sidelined for a solid one to two months as he recovers from injury, with the forward set for abdominal injury. This is a major blow for the club as he has seen decent time with his four goals this campaign, losing a rotational option in the attack. With injuries all over the attacking department, Ayoube Amaimouni-Echghouyab could be forced into a starting role, although Jonathan Burkardt (calf) and Arnaud Kalimuendo (shoulder) should start once fit.

Oscar Hojlund - Option again Hojlund is no longer suspended and is an option for the club moving forward.

Impact Hojlund will be eligible to play the next game after a ban left him out for a match, set to be an option moving forward. He has been more of a rotational pick this campaign, starting in four of his 15 appearances while recording one assist.

FEBRUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Rasmus Kristensen - Set for further examination Kristensen is out for the time being due to an ankle injury, according to his club.

Impact Kristensen will not be an option for the next few weeks, as the defender is set for further examination after an ankle injury. This will be a major loss for the club as they deal without a regular defender, only missing three starts all season when an option. With Arthur Theate also out due to injury, the club will turn to Robin Koch, Aurele Amenda and Nnamdi Collins to start in the center of the defense as they wait on the final examination of Kristensen.

FEBRUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Arnaud Kalimuendo - Injury deemed not serious Kalimuendo (shoulder) has avoided a serious injury and is not expected to miss too much time, according to his club.

Impact Kalimeundo is hitting the sidelines with a shoulder injury but will not see an extended absence, as the injury has not been deemed serious after testing. This will likely leave him with a return near the end of the month or to start March, still needing a bit of time to recover. He has started in three straight, with Ansgar Knauff likely to resume a starting role until Kalimunedo returns.

FEBRUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Nnamdi Collins - Productive off bench Collins registered three tackles (three won), three clearances and three interceptions in Saturday's 3-0 win over Monchengladbach.

Impact Collins started on the bench and came on at halftime of Saturday's match against Monchengladbach, delivering a strong defensive performance with three tackles, three interceptions and three clearances. The defender had gone three straight matches without seeing the pitch, and his role moving forward remains uncertain, though the injury to Rasmus Kristensen could open the door for increased minutes in the coming fixtures.

FEBRUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Ansgar Knauff - Scores as substitute Knauff scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-0 victory against Monchengladbach.

Impact Knauff started on the bench and came on in the 70th minute of Saturday's match against Monchengladbach, scoring with a composed lob. The forward has primarily operated in a reserve role of late, though he has started 10 of his 20 Bundesliga appearances this season, recording four goals and one assist during that span. The injury to Arnaud Kalimuendo could allow him to see increased playing time in the coming matches.

FEBRUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Jean Matteo Bahoya - Delivers two assists Bahoya assisted twice to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and five chances created in Saturday's 3-0 win against Monchengladbach.

Impact Bahoya made his first start in 10 matches and justified the nod by delivering two assists in Saturday's clash against Monchengladbach, first with a pinpoint cross to Nathaniel Brown to open the scoring and then by setting up Ayoube Amaimouni-Echghouyab. He also recorded a season-high five chances created in the outing. The Frenchman took advantage of injuries to Can Uzun and Fares Chaibi to earn the start, and his performance could help him secure increased minutes moving forward.

FEBRUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Arnaud Kalimuendo - Suffers apparent shoulder injury Kalimuendo (shoulder) was forced off in the 17th minute of Saturday's clash against Gladbach due to an apparent injury, the club announced.

Impact Kalimuendo didn't even make it out of the opening 20 minutes in Saturday's clash against Gladbach, going down early with an apparent shoulder injury that forced him off. He was subbed out for Mahmoud Dahoud, which pushed Mario Gotze higher up the field while Ayoube Amaimouni-Echghouyab slid into the striker role. The Moroccan forward now lines up for an uptick in minutes while the Frenchman works his way back.

FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Fares Chaibi - Ruled out Saturday Chaibi (undisclosed) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Gladbach.

Impact Chaibi is ruled out for Saturday's outing after failing to recover from the slight knock he sustained ahead of the match. The midfielder had required further testing but is not cleared in time to feature. His absence removes a player who has started 20 of his 24 appearances this season, though he had started only once in the past three games. Mario Gotze is the one playing deeper in the midfield for that clash.

FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Elias Baum - Option off bench Baum (knee) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Gladbach.

Impact Baum is available off the bench after returning from the MCL injury that had kept him sidelined since Christmas. The defender got back on the training pitch with the team Wednesday and is included in the matchday squad. He resumes a depth role similar to the one he held prior to going down.

FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Arthur Theate - Undergoes successful surgery Theate underwent a successful meniscus surgery and is set to miss up to six weeks, according to Christopher Michel from Absolut Eintracht.

Impact Theate tore his meniscus in the last matchup against Union Berlin and underwent surgery in recent days, an operation that will keep him sidelined for up to six weeks. It is a significant setback for the Eagles, as he has been a locked-in starter whenever healthy and available this season, anchoring the backline with consistency. His absence now forces a reshuffle in defense, with Aurele Amenda emerging as the leading candidate to step into his spot until he returns.

FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Fares Chaibi - Late call for Saturday Chaibi is questionable for Saturday's match against Gladbach, according to manager Albert Riera. "Fares has a slight knock, so we'll see how he's feeling on the day of the game."

Impact Chaibi is going to need some testing ahead of Saturday's outing, with the midfielder dealt a slight knock ahead of the match. This is something to watch moving forward if he misses out, as he does see decent time, starting in 20 of his 24 outings. He has only started once in their past three games, so it is possible he is selected for the bench to be cautious after the injury.

FEBRUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Jonathan Burkardt - Won't return Saturday Burkardt (calf) is out for Saturday's match against Monchengladbach, manager Albert Riera told media Friday. "Jonny was actually close to returning, but we had to take it easy due...

Impact Burkardt has been sidelined since Nov. 26 due to a calf problem, and while he won't be an option here, chances are he'll be ready to feature against Bayern Munich on Feb. 21. Burkardt has 10 goals in 15 matches between the Bundesliga and UEFA Champions League this term, so his return would provide a huge boost for Frankfurt.
