- Newcomers Wehen Wiesbaden lost their first two matches in Bundesliga II but they took top-flight side Koln to a penalty shootout in the cup on Sunday, coming back from 2-0 down in the process.
- Strikers Phillip Tietz and Manuel Schaffler are doubtful after missing last Sunday's match through injury, while midfield duo Jules Schwadorf and Patrick Schonfeld as well as left-back Marc Wachs remain sidelined.
- Michel Niemeyer and Dominik Franke are battling for the left-back berth but coach Rudiger Rehm is unlikely to make many changes from Sunday after a spirited performance from his men.
HANNOVER 96
Predicted line-up (3-4-1-2): Zieler; Felipe, Franke, Anton; Korb, Prib, Bakalorz, Ostrzolek; Muslija; Weydandt, Ducksch
Unavailable: Hubers (Injured), Jonathas (Injured), Jung (Injured)
Doubtful: Walace (Personal reasons), Prib (Injured), Bakalorz (Injured)
- Hannover 96 were knocked out of the DFB Cup by Bundesliga II rivals Karlsruher SC on Monday night, extending their winless run on the road to 19 games in all competitions.
- Summer signing Cedric Teuchert came off the bench for his first appearance at Karlsruher and he will be hoping to get more minutes under his belt with fellow striker Jonathas currently sidelined.
- Right-back Sebastian Jung has been ruled out after picking up an injury on Monday, while left-back Jannes Horn has arrived on loan from Koln with Miiko Albornoz expected to leave the club.
BETTING ANALYSIS
It is almost exactly a year since Hannover 96 last won away from home but a trip to Wehen Wiesbaden offers them a good opportunity to put an end to that run. The home side have had a similarly poor start to the campaign and Hannover should have enough quality to get a result.
Betting tip: Hannover 96 (Draw no bet)
