🗞️ Team News: Karlsruhe
Tim Breithaupt (Ankle Fracture), Efe Kaan Sihlaroglu (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) and Kyoung-rok Choi (Collarbone fracture) aren’t available for Karlsruhe gaffer Christian Eichner.
In our view, Karlsruhe should line up in a 4-4-2 system for this one and select Marius Gersbeck, Marco Thiede, Christoph Kobald, Marcel Franke, Philip Heise, Paul Nebel, Jerome Gondorf, Leon Jensen, Marvin Wanitzek, Mikkel Kaufmann and Fabian Schleusener.
🗞️ Team News: Hamburg
Hamburg boss Tim Walter has a number of players out of action. Ogechika Heil (Calf Problems), Tom Mickel (Fractured Rib) and Sebastian Schonlau (Ankle Injury) miss out here.
There’s a good chance that Hamburg could decide to play in a 4-3-3 formation by sending out D. Heuer Fernandes, Noah Katterbach, Jonas David, Moritz Heyer, Miro Muheim, Ludovit Reis, Jonas Meffert, Laszlo Benes, Bakery Jatta, Robert Glatzel and Jean-Luc Dompe.
⚡ Prediction
Looking at these two teams, we feel that Karlsruhe should be able to find the back of the net against this Hamburg side, however a single goal probably shouldn’t be good enough.
Therefore, we’re predicting a very close game with a 1-2 victory for Hamburg by the conclusion of the game. It really should be an interesting one.
