- Lukas Kwasniok will be forced into at least one change on Friday evening after centre-back Visar Musliu was sent off just eight minutes into his debut last weekend.
- Musliu's absence will see Jannis Heuer return to the back three, while two other changes are on the cards for the hosts.
- Expect former Schalke midfielder Mattes Hansen to make his full debut in the centre of the park, while Sebastian Klaas could return further forward.
- Tobias Schweinsteiger could play Florian Bähr on the right this weekend with first-choice right-back Bashkim Adjini now ruled out.
- Centre-back Timo Beermann remains a long-term injury concern for the away side, while winger Emeka Oduah will miss the rest of August with a back problem.
