A knock could keep Martin Hinteregger out of this match, while Christopher Lenz and Goncalo Paciencia are also injury concerns for the home side. The latter is one booking away from a one-match ban in the competition. Midfield duo Birger Verstraete and Pieter Gerkens are both one booking away from suspension in the Europa League. Sander Coopman is the only guaranteed absentee for Royal Antwerp, he is a long-term absentee. Aurelio Buta hasn't played in over a month so Jelle Bataille looks good to continue at right-back for the away side. Mbwana Samatta and Benson Manuel are in competition to start on the right wing if they go with just one striker in Frankfurt.
Frankfurt only need to avoid defeat to secure a place in the next round and they can also secure first place on Thursday. The Bundesliga outfit are in good form heading into this one with three straight wins and just two defeats in their last 15 matches in all competitions. Royal Antwerp are bottom of Group D with one point from four games. The Belgian outfit have only won two of their last eight games in all competitions and lost 1-0 to Frankfurt in the reverse fixture earlier this season. A bigger defeat looms here. 3:0
