Team News

St. Pauli
Nuernberg
  • Fabian Hürzeler could recall Australian international Jackson Irvine with the midfielder fit to start after returning to the bench last time out.
  • Scott Banks is the home side's only confirmed absentee for the visit of Nürnberg.
  • Cristian Fiel will recall teenage midfielder Can Uzun after Jens Castrop picked up his fifth yellow card of the season during the game against Magdeburg.
  • Summer signing Daichi Hayashi has suffered Achilles tendon damage and will be sidelined until the start of December.

Prediction

  • Goals from Johannes Eggestein and Marcel Hartel helped St. Pauli to a deserved 2-1 away win against Hertha Berlin last time out. Fabian Hürzeler's side are the only unbeaten team in the 2. Bundesliga this season and sit top of the table ahead of their city rivals Hamburg heading into gameweek nine.
  • An immediate impact from Felix Lohkemper proved enough to earn Nürnberg all three points in their clash with Magdeburg last weekend. Saturday's visitors were winless in three league outings prior to that result but now sit ninth in the standings ahead of their toughest test of the season so far.
