If Eintracht Frankfurt lose out to Barcelona in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League then the Bundesliga match against the team from Hessen will be brought forward to Friday night, 29 April (kick-off: 20.30 CEST).
The DFL on that issue: "On matchday 32 there is a derby between Borussia Dortmund and VfL Bochum 1848 (Saturday 30 April). In addition, Bayer 04 Leverkusen play Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Mönchengladbach are at home to RB Leipzig. As 1 May 2022 falls on a Sunday, this day will be kept free of fixtures at the request of the security authorities. That affects matchday 32 in the Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2 and leads to an unusual situation in setting the fixtures: As Eintracht Frankfurt and RB Leipzig require regeneration time after playing matches in Europe and the semi-final games in the UEFA Europa League are on Thursday 28 April that means the following Sunday (1 May) cannot be used so the Bundesliga fixtures for the two clubs will be played on Monday 2 May. If clubs do not reach the Europa League semi-finals then the DFL will move the relevant match involving Eintracht Frankfurt (at Bayer 04 Leverkusen) and/or RB Leipzig (at Borussia Mönchengladbach) back to Friday 29 April. This approach has been agreed with the four clubs affected."
The nine games on matchday 34 will all kick-off at 15.30 CEST on the Saturday afternoon, this year that is 15 May. The final game of the 2021/22 Bundesliga season brings SC Freiburg to the BayArena.
