Team News

Nuernberg
St. Pauli
  • Cristian Fiel will likely opt for an unchanged starting XI on Saturday following an impressive display against Magdeburg.
  • Nürnberg have six players sidelined with injuries ahead of the visit of league leaders St. Pauli this weekend.
  • Right-back Manolis Saliakas is suspended for the trip to Max-Morlock-Stadion, so expect Aljoscha Kemlein to fill in there out of position.
  • Fabian Hürzeler will also be without centre-back Karol Mets after he suffered a knee injury during the game against Hertha Berlin.

Prediction

  • Star man Can Uzun was the difference maker once again last weekend as his late goal earned Nürnberg all three points against Magdeburg at the MDCC-Arena. Back-to-back league wins have given Cristian Fiel's side an outside chance of nudging their way into the battle for the promotion play-off spot.
  • St. Pauli moved one step closer to booking their return to the Bundesliga when they closed out a routine 2-0 home win against Hertha Berlin last Sunday. Fabian Hürzeler's men have won three of their last four league games ahead of the trip to Max-Morlock-Stadion and are ten points clear of third-placed Hamburg with nine games remaining.
