Team News

St. Pauli
Paderborn
  • Lars Ritzka picked up an injury against Nürnberg and is set to miss out, but right-back Manolis Saliakas will return after serving his suspension.
  • Fabian Hürzeler will be without the suspended Elias Saad following his latest yellow card, but centre-back Eric Smith is back fit and ready to feature.
  • Lukas Kwasniok could hand a start to Martin Ens after he completed his suspension last time out, while Adriano Grimaldi is also in line for a recall.
  • Paderborn will be without Kai Klefisch on Sunday after he crossed the yellow card suspension threshold in gameweek 26.

Prediction

  • St. Pauli enjoyed a straightforward visit to Max-Morlock-Stadion two weeks ago with goals from Johannes Eggestein and Marcel Hartel seeing off the threat of Cristian Fiel's Nürnberg side. Fabian Hürzeler's men are sitting pretty at the top, five points clear of second-placed Holstein Kiel with four wins in their last five league games.
  • Padernorn lost ground in the battle for third place when they were beaten 2-1 at home by a relegation-threatened Eintracht Braunschweig side in gameweek 26. Lukas Kwasniok's men rocketed up the table recently, but have since collapsed, winning just one of their last five ahead of the trip to the Millerntor-Stadion on Sunday.
