Team News

Holstein Kiel
Hannover
  • With Steven Skrzybski and Benedikt Pichler both sidelined, expect a makeshift attacking set-up once again from the home side.
  • Marcel Rapp will likely opt for an unchanged line-up following a commanding defensive display against a typically free-scoring Fortuna Düsseldorf side.
  • Stefan Leitl could make one change to the side that faced Karlsruher last weekend with Andreas Voglsammer returning to the starting XI up top.
  • Brooklyn Ezeh remains unavailable due to an off-the-field incident, while Louis Schaub is suspended.

Prediction

  • Holstein Kiel secured one of their most significant results of the season last Sunday as Lewis Holtby's fortunate first-half goal proved enough to sink Fortuna Düsseldorf.
  • Defeat for Hamburg meant that Marcel Rapp's side moved four points clear of the third-placed team and level on points with league leaders St. Pauli heading into the final two games of the Hinrunde.
  • Hannover struck twice during the final 20 minutes of their game against Karlsruher last weekend as they came from 2-0 down to secure a point the Heinz von Heiden Arena.
  • Stefan Leitl's men are now winless in their last four league outings and travel to Holstein-Stadion having taken just one point from their last four away from home.
