Team News

Greuther Fuerth
Holstein Kiel
  • Expect Alexander Zorniger to name an unchanged starting XI for the visit of Holstein Kiel.
  • Oussama Haddadi is still on international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations, while Gian-Luca Itter and Niko Gießelmann are both long-term absentees.
  • Marcel Rapp could make one change to the side that faced Eintracht Braunschweig with Holmbert Fridjonsson returning to the starting XI.
  • New signings Mikkel Kirkeskov and Alexander Bernhardsson could both make the bench for the trip to Sportpark Ronhof | Thomas Sommer.

Prediction

  • A first-half Armindo Sieb goal proved to be the difference for Greuther Fürth last time out as they squeezed out a 1-0 away victory against Paderborn. Alexander Zorniger's side are unbeaten in their last eight 2.Bundesliga matches and have climbed to fourth in the standings, just three points behind their visitors.
  • Holstein Kiel won five consecutive league games heading into the Winterpause, but Marcel Rapp's men started the Rückrunde in the worst possible fashion, losing at home to relegation-threatened Eintracht Braunschweig. That defeat saw the away side drop off the top of the table with St. Pauli resuming the first-place spot.
