It seems likely that Greuther Fürth will possibly use a 4-4-2 formation for this game featuring Jonas Urbig, Marco Meyerhöfer, Gideon Jung, Maximilian Dietz, Oussama Haddadi, Armindo Sieb, Robert Wagner, Jomaine Consbruch, Tim Lemperle, Dennis Srbeny and Branimir Hrgota.

📰 Team News: Eintracht Braunschweig

Eintracht Braunschweig boss Daniel Scherning has to currently contend with reduced team options. Danilo Wiebe (bruise), Maurice Multhaup (Eye injury) and Yannik Bangsow (Shoulder injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

It’s our belief that Braunschweig seem most likely to play in a 3-5-2 system, settling for Ron-Thorben Hoffmann, Robert Ivanov, Ermin Bicakcic, Hasan Kurucay, Marvin Rittmüller, Fabio Kaufmann, Robin Krauße, T. Jóhann Helgason, Anderson Lucoqui, Rayan Philippe and Johan Gómez.
