This is the first season Eintracht Frankfurt has played Europa League football since they went all the way in the competition and beat Rangers dramatically on penalties in the 2022 final. That final was staged on Spanish soil as this year’s edition will be, so the German outfit will be hoping it proves to be a lucky omen. As well as impressing on the European front, ‘The Eagles’ (Die Adler) are looking good for a top-4 spot in the Bundesliga, which would be their best league finish since filling the runners-up slot during the 2011/12 campaign.
The Europa League has grown in significance in recent times. UEFA has done a great job of raising the profile of Europe's second most prestigious competition and making it a more thrilling event for football fans. As well as offering clubs the opportunity to win major silverware, it also now provides an automatic route into next season’s Champions League campaign. Getting your hands on Bundesliga match tickets can prove to be a tough ask these days, so the Europa League also offers fans a further chance to see their beloved side in action. Don’t miss out on the chance of securing tickets to an absorbing night of European football in Frankfurt.

Ange Postecoglou's posse made an early FA Cup exit and currently resides in the bottom half of the Premier League table, so they are now laser-focused on the European campaign. Tottenham have produced a mixed bag of results on the road in Europe to date, with two wins, two losses and a draw. One of those wins did come on German soil though, when they beat Hoffenheim 3-2 in January.
European football nights under the lights are always unique and memorable and this promises to be one of the highlights of the season to date. Let GOAL give you all the vital ticket information you need for Eintracht Frankfurt vs Tottenham, including how much they cost and where you can buy them.

How did Eintracht Frankfurt vs Tottenham qualify for the Europa League quarter-finals?
Getty ImagesEintracht Frankfurt made hard work of their opening league phase assignment, drawing 3-3 with Viktoria Plzen on home soil. However, they got into their Europa League stride with a 3-1 success in Turkey against Besiktas, which was the first of four straight wins for Dino Toppmoller’s men. Although they lost two of their last three league matches (vs Lyon and Roma), Eintracht still finished within the top-8 and headed into the last 16 in fine fettle. It looked like a tough test against Dutch giants Ajax was on the cards, but Frankfurt would ease through 6-2 on aggregate as they won both legs, 2-1 away and 4-1 at home.
Despite a winless 3-match run during the middle of the league phase, Tottenham started and ended their 8-match Europa League schedule strongly. Postecoglou's men finished in 4th spot in the standings, which meant they progressed straight to the last-16 stage of the knockouts. AZ Alkmaar awaited them and although Tottenham lost 1-0 on Dutch soil, they roared back to life in North London. Two goals from French youngster, Wilson Odobert, and one from James Maddison, saw Tottenham progress to the last-8 with a 3-2 aggregate scoreline.
