Team News

Nuernberg
Kaiserslautern
  • Cristian Fiel could have star midfielder Can Uzun back fit for the visit of managerless Kaiserslautern on Sunday afternoon.
  • Centre-back Ivan Marquez is set to serve a yellow-card suspension, so Ahmet Gürleyen is in line for a recall at the back.
  • New manager Friedhelm Funkel could hand a start to Filip Stojilkovic with the January signing still awaiting his full league debut.
  • Wing-back Frank Ronstadt picked up a knock during the game against Paderborn and will be replaced by Jean Zimmer here.

Prediction

  • Nürberg were behind for a mere nine minutes last weekend as Ivan Marquez's second-half goal proved enough to salvage a point against Wehen Wiesbaden.
  • The hosts are in no real danger of dropping into the relegation battle, but a three-match winless streak has given fans plenty of reasons to be frustrated.
  • Dimitrios Grammozis' short tenure as Kaiserslautern ended earlier in the week as the board decided that a 2-1 home defeat against Paderborn was enough reason to terminate his contract.
  • The visitors have lost nine of their last 10 2. Bundesliga matches and are only clear of 17th-placed Hansa Rostock on goal difference.
