Team News

Holstein Kiel
Hansa Rostock
  • With both Thomas Dähne and Timon Weiner injured, third-choice goalkeeper Marcel Engelhardt could get a rare opportunity on Saturday.
  • Colin Kleine-Bekel is also set to miss out, so Marko Ivezic could return to the starting XI at the back.
  • Mersad Selimbegovic will likely make no changes to the side that beat Greuther Fürth two weeks ago.
  • Centre-back Jonas David is a doubt for Hansa Rostock, while Felix Ruschke and Alexander Rossipal are both confirmed absentees.

Prediction

  • Goals from Philipp Sander and Shuto Machino proved enough to see off the threat of a mid-table Elversberg side last time out as Holstein Kiel maintained the pace at the top end of the table. Marcel Rapp's men sit five points behind league leaders St. Pauli, but also five points clear of third-placed Hamburg.
  • The relegation battle continues to hot up heading into gameweek 27 and Hansa Rostock marked their most recent 2.Bundesliga fixture with a critical 1-0 home win against a free-falling Greuther Fürth side. Back-to-back wins have lifted the visitors up to 16th in the standings, but they remain just one point clear of 17th-placed Eintracht Braunschweig.
