Team News: Erzgebirge Aue
Erzgebirge Aue boss Jens Härtel has to choose a team with limited availability. Kilian Jakob (Adductor pain), Marcel Bär (Achilles tendon rupture), Maximilian Schmid (Syndesmotic ligament tear) and Maxim Burghardt (Cruciate ligament tear) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

Prediction
In this match, Verl look set to fashion enough chances to find the net more than once while possibly not conceding when they play Erzgebirge Aue, who could well find it tough to get a goal of their own.
We therefore think that it’s going to be a pretty comfortable 2-0 win for Verl at full-time.
