Eintracht Frankfurt manager Armin Veh has opted to start Jan Rosenthal up front as the lone striker for his side's home clash with Hertha Berlin.

Vaclav Kadlec does not make the team, which means that Alexander Meier heads an attacking trio behind Rosenthal, comprising also of Stefan Aigner and Takashi Inui.

There are no surprises in the Hertha starting lineup, with Adrian Ramos starting up front, despite the rumours linking him with a January move to the Premier League.

Frankfurt: Trapp; Djakpa, Russ, Zambrano, Jung; Schwegler, Rode; Inui, Meier, Aigner; Rosenthal

Hertha: Kraft; Van den Bergh, Langkamp, Lustenberger, Pekarik; Niemeyer, Hosogai; Schulz, Skjelbred, Allagui; Ramos
