THE TEAM NEWS
BOCHUM
- Bochum eased their relegation fears with a 2-1 win at bottom side Dynamo Dresden last Saturday but they have lost their last three home matches.
- Aside from long-term absentee Bapoh, coach Reis has a full squad at his disposal, so he has plenty of options if needed.
- Top scorer Ganvoula is almost certain to be recalled up front after coming off the bench to score his 11th goal of the campaign against Dresden.
Predicted line-up (4-3-3): Riemann; Gamboa, Decarli, Leitsch, Danilo Soares; Tesche, Losilla, Janelt; Zoller, Ganvoula, Blum
Unavailable: Bapoh (Injured)
Doubtful:
SANDHAUSEN
- Sandhausen's slump continued last weekend as they lost without scoring for the fourth game in a row at home to Karlsruher SC.
- Centre-back Nauber is fit again so Karl and Zenga are the only absentees, although four players are one booking away from a suspension.
- Coach Koschinat made six changes against Karlsruher but it did not have the desired effect, so the likes of Scheu and Bouhaddouz could be recalled here.
Predicted line-up (4-3-1-2): Fraisl; Diekmeier, Nauber, Zhirov, Paqarada; Paurevic, Linsmayer, Scheu; Halimi; Bouhaddouz, Behrens
Unavailable: Karl (Injured), Zenga (Injured)
Doubtful:
THE PREDICTION
Only bottom side Dynamo Dresden have scored fewer goals in Bundesliga 2 than Sandhausen, who have gone over 360 minutes without hitting the target. Bochum have not exactly been banging in the goals themselves lately so this is likely to be a low-scoring contest.
