  • Holstein Kiel responded well after falling behind against Hansa Rostock last Sunday, scoring three times before the hour mark to secure a 3-1 comeback win at the Ostseestadion.
  • With seven points from their last three league outings, Marcel Rapp's side have climbed into the top three.
  • Nürnberg moved into the top half of the 2. Bundesliga table last weekend when they came from behind to beat Hertha Berlin 3-1 at Max-Morlock-Stadion.
  • Away form remains an issue for Cristian Fiel with his side having won just one of their five league games on the road this season.
