THE TEAM NEWS

NURNBERG

  • Nurnberg lost 4-3 to Erzgebirge Aue in an incredible match last Friday, in which both teams scored in stoppage time before Nurnberg missed a penalty in the tenth minute of the added-on time.
  • Coach Damir Canadi has issues at centre-back with Asger Sorensen suspended following his red card and Georg Magreitter nursing a knock, so Lukas Muhl will certainly start.
  • Tim Handwerker and Johannes Geis - who scored twice at Aue - are also slight doubts having missed training on Thursday, while striker Fabian Schleusener is edging closer to a return.

Predicted line-up (4-3-3): Lukse; Sorg, Muhl, Margreitter, Handwerker; Jager, Behrens, Geis; Dovedan, Frey, Hack

Unavailable: Misidjan (Injured), Zrelak (Injured), Mathenia (Injured), Sorensen (Suspended)

Doubtful: Schleusener (Injured), Handwerker (Injured), Fuchs (Injured), Geis (Injured), Margreitter (Injured)

JAHN REGENSBURG

  • Jahn Regensburg recorded back-to-back league wins for the first time since March with a 1-0 success at home to Sandhausen last Saturday.
  • Andreas Geipl has joined Oliver Hein on the treatment table with an abductor tear but Benedikt Saller is back from suspension.
  • Saller is likely to return at right-back in place of Nicolas Wahling, who made his debut against Sandhausen, but otherwise it should be the same team, with Federico Palacios set to face his former club.

Predicted line-up (4-4-2): Meyer; Saller, Nachreiner, Correia, Okoroji; George, Gimber, Besuschkow, Palacios; Stolze, Gruttner

Unavailable: Hein (Injured), Geipl (Injured)

Doubtful:

THE PREDICTION

Jahn Regensburg make the short trip to the Max-Morlock-Stadion off the back of two wins and they have only failed to score in one of their last 18 league matches. After Nurnberg's seven-goal thriller at Aue, coupled with the hosts' personnel issues, there is every reason to expect goals.
