🗞️ Team News: Greuther Furth

The Greuther Furth boss Alexander Zorniger will be grateful not to have any fitness concerns at all before this match thanks to a fully healthy group to choose from.

It looks as if Greuther Fürth may well line up in a 4-4-2 formation with Andreas Linde, Simon Asta, Gideon Jung, Gian-Luca Itter, Marco John, Maximilian Dietz, Max Christiansen, Branimir Hrgota, Julian Green, Ragnar Ache and Lukas Petkov.

📰 Team News: Darmstadt

Darmstadt boss Torsten Lieberknecht has to choose a team with limited availability. Frank Ronstadt (Tear in the abductor muscle), Oscar Vilhelmsson (Pulled hamstring at the adductors) and Jannik Müller (Torn muscle bundle) are not ready for selection.

It’s our belief that Darmstadt might utilise a 3-4-1-2 formation with a starting lineup of Alexander Brunst, Christoph Zimmermann, Klaus Gjasula, Patric Pfeiffer, Matthias Bader, Fabian Schnellhardt, Marvin Mehlem, Fabian Holland, Mathias Honsak, Phillip Tietz and Braydon Manu.

⚡ Prediction

We feel that Darmstadt and Greuther Furth could well end up finding themselves trading goals here.
