Last season’s Europa League champions Eintracht Frankfurt will begin their 2022-23 Champions League group stage campaign against Sporting Lisbon at Deutsche Bank Park on Wednesday. Frankfurt are heading into the match on the back of a thumping 4-0 victory over RB Leipzig in a Bundesliga fixture last Saturday, while the Portuguese outfit got the better of Estoril Praia on the same day. Sporting finished second in the Primeira Liga standings last season to earn a spot among Europe’s elite. 

Frankfurt have had a mixed start to their Bundesliga campaign, having registered two wins, two draws and a loss to pocket eight points and sit at the 10th position in the standings. The Eagles’ two league wins came in their last two games against Wolfsburg  and RB Leipzig. In their recent outing against Leipzig, goals from Daichi Kamada, Sebastian Rode, Tuta and Rafael Mauray helped Die Adler secure all three points. Sporting, on the other hand, also haven’t enjoyed the ideal start in Portugal’s top flight. The Green and whites have recorded just two wins from their five league games and one of those wins came in their last outing against Estoril Praia. Jeremiah St. Just and Marcus Edwards netted for Ruben Amorim’s side at Antonio Coimbra da Mota.
