Little known rule side need LOSE last game make Champions League

Eintracht Frankfurt could secure Champions League spot by losing final match, thanks to Dortmund's potential Champions League win and Bundesliga rules.

Eintracht Frankfurt has a slim chance of making it to the Champions League next season, despite currently sitting in sixth place in the Bundesliga. The league is set to send an extra team to the elite competition due to the strong performances of German clubs across all UEFA competitions.

The top five teams in the Bundesliga, including champions Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern Munich, Stuttgart, RB Leipzig, and Borussia Dortmund, are all set to be in the draw for the Champions League next season. Eintracht Frankfurt is currently 12 points behind fifth-placed Dortmund, with only three matches left in the season.

However, there is still hope for Eintracht to secure a spot in the Champions League, but they will need assistance from Dortmund. If Dortmund wins the Champions League and finishes fifth in the Bundesliga, then the sixth-placed team, Eintracht Frankfurt, will also qualify for the tournament.

This unique scenario could see Eintracht Frankfurt benefiting from both Dortmund's success and their own strategic loss to Leipzig in the final match of the season. The competition for the top spots in the Bundesliga is intense, with teams like Stuttgart, Freiburg, Augsburg, and Hoffenheim also vying for European qualification.

Eintracht Frankfurt will face tough challenges against Leverkusen and Monchengladbach before their crucial match against Leipzig. The outcome of these matches could determine their fate in the race for European competition next season. Despite the odds stacked against them, Eintracht Frankfurt remains hopeful of securing a spot in the Champions League through a series of strategic outcomes and results.
