Confirmed lineups: Bayer 04 Leverkusen vs. Eintracht Frankfurt

Bayer 04 Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt go head-to-head in the third match of their 2025/26 Bundesliga campaigns (Friday, 20:30 CET). Here are the confirmed lineups for both sides.

Bayer 04 Leverkusen host Eintracht Frankfurt in the third matchweek of the 2025/26 Bundesliga season, with kickoff at the BayArena set for 20:30 (CET).

These teams are in completely different situations early in the season: Frankfurt are 2-0-0 with victories against SV Werder Bremen (4-1) and TSG 1899 Hoffenheim (3-1), while Bayer 04 Leverkusen lost their opener to Hoffenheim (3-3) and drew with Bremen (3-3).

Danish coach Kasper Hjulmand, who led the national team to a semifinal finish at UEFA EURO 2020, replaced Erik Ten Hag after the latter was embroiled in a series of issues off the field. Hjulmand is the third permanent head coach contracted to Leverkusen in just four months, and this will be his competitive debut on the bench.

Here are the confirmed lineups for this evening’s match.
