Team News

Magdeburg
Elversberg
  • Christian Titz is set to stick with the 3-4-3 system that he switched to last season with the influence of winger Baris Atik and wing-back Mohammed El-Hankouri still critical.
  • New signings Marcus Mathisen, Falko Michel and Martijn Kaars could all make their league debuts for Magdeburg on Saturday.
  • With Jannik Rochelt and Thore Jacobsen leaving the club, Horst Steffen will have to bleed new signings Elias Baum and Frederik Schmahl into the starting XI on the opening day.
  • Frederik Jäkel and Patryk Dragon are both confirmed absentees for the away side.

Prediction

  • Magdeburg ended the 2023/24 campaign firmly in the bottom half and winless in their final four league games, but the board have kept faith in Christian Titz, backing him in the transfer market.
  • With stalwarts Leon Bell, Amara Conde, Daniel Elfadli and Luca Schuler all out of the picture, fans can expect a new-look Magdeburg this season.
  • Elversberg made a strong impression during their first-ever 2. Bundesliga campaign last year, ending the season in 11th place, within touching distance of the top half.
  • Consolidation is the name of the game for Horst Steffen's side this time around and with limited investment in the playing staff, fans will be content with another battle for mid-table stability.
