Pirmin Schwegler predicts "tough" Porto encounter

Schwegler predicts "tough" Porto match

Eintracht Frankfurt captain Pirmin Schwegler has admitted that despite scoring two away goals his side will have a tricky time against Porto in the second leg of their Europa League last-32 tie on Thursday night.

The German side came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 in Portugal a week ago and Schwegler said that he would not get carried away despite the positive result.

"Porto are a really tough outfit that normally play in the Champions League," he told Bundesliga.com.

"We're not going anywhere with just the 2-2 draw behind us, but we've put ourselves in a good position to progress."

Joselu and an Alex Sandro own goal got Frankfurt back into the tie last week.
