Team News

Hoffenheim
St. Pauli
  • Ozan Kabak is ruled out until the end of the year with an ACL injury, while Grischa Prömel has also suffered an ACL tear and could miss the rest of the season.
  • Marco John is still feeling his way back in training, while Finn Becker and Ihlas Bebou are both recovering from knee operations.
  • Star man Elias Saad needs an ankle operation and will be ruled out for several months. Ben Voll has a broken jaw.
  • Back up keepers Sascha Burchert and Sören Ahlers are both out long term with knee injuries. Eric Oelschlägel has been signed as cover.
  • Simon Zoller is struggling with a muscle injury, Connor Metcalfe is struggling with his adductors.

Prediction

  • Both sides have to recover from DFB Pokal action in midweek, but St. Pauli do benefit from 24 hours longer rest and recuperation.
  • St Pauli are yet to win nor score a goal at home, but at least prevailed in Freiburg, their first Bundesliga win in 13 years.
  • A share of the spoils could be a good shout here with honours even.
