THE TEAM NEWS
DYNAMO DRESDEN
- Dynamo Dresden's 2-1 loss at home to Holstein Kiel – their seventh defeat in eight league games – proved to be the final curtain for coach Cristian Fiel, who was dismissed after eight months in the job.
- Former player Heiko Scholz has been placed in caretaker charge and it remains to be seen whether he will divert from the back three that Fiel has used for most of the season.
- Scholz could be without captain Hartmann, who is still struggling with a knee problem, while midfielders Ebert and Moschl are still working their way back from injury.
Predicted line-up (4-4-2): Broll; Kulke, Ballas, Ehlers, C. Lowe; Klingenburg, Nikolaou, Burnic, Kreuzer; Kone, Jeremejeff
Unavailable: Ebert (Injured), Moschl (Injured)
Doubtful: Hartmann (Injured), Hamalainen (Illness)
SANDHAUSEN
- Sandhausen made it five games unbeaten with a 2-1 win at home to Stuttgart last Sunday but they have only won once on their travels this season.
- Left-back Paqarada, who has been an ever-present this season, is suspended after collecting his fifth yellow card, so Dieckmann could get his first outing of the campaign.
- There are unlikely to be any other changes, with midfield quartet Karl, Zenga, Kulovits and Frey plus striker Biada still sidelined due to injury.
Predicted line-up (4-2-2-2): Fraisl; Diekmeier, Nauber, Zhirov, Dieckmann; Paurevic, Linsmayer; Scheu, Halimi; Bouhaddouz, Behrens
Unavailable: Karl (Injured), Zenga (Injured), Kulovits (Injured), Frey (Injured), Biada (Injured), Paqarada (Suspended)
Doubtful:
THE PREDICTION
Dynamo Dresden will be hoping a change in the dugout can halt their slide. The basement boys are the joint-lowest scorers in Bundesliga 2 but Sandhausen have only scored one more goal and have particularly struggled to find the net away from home, so this looks like being a low-scoring game.
