Assan Ouédraogo (Hamstring injury), Antonio Nusa (Knee injury), Xaver Schlager (Muscle injury) and Benjamin Henrichs (Achilles tendon rupture) will not be taking part for RB Leipzig boss Zsolt Lőw.
It seems likely that Leipzig may well kick off with a 4-4-2 system this time featuring Peter Gulacsi, Kosta Nedeljkovic, Willi Orban, E. C. Bitshiabu, Castello Lukeba, Ridle Baku, Nicolas Seiwald, Arthur Vermeeren, C. Baumgartner, Benjamin Sesko and Ikoma Lois Openda.

Andu Kelati (Knee injury), Colin Kleine-Bekel (Fitness), Ivan Nekic (muscular problems), Benedikt Pichler (Hamstring injury), Patrick Erras (concussion) and Lewis Holtby (Hamstring injury) will miss out on this game.
We believe Holstein Kiel will likely make use of a 4-4-2 system with a starting lineup of Thomas Daehne, Timo Becker, David Zec, Marco Komenda, Lasse Rosenboom, Magnus Knudsen, Nicolai Remberg, John Tolkin, Armin Gigovic, A. Bernhardsson and Shuto Machino.
