Team News: Regensburg
In all likelihood, Regensburg may well kick off with a 3-5-2 system this time featuring Julian Pollersbeck, Leopold Wurm, Florian Ballas, Robin Ziegele, Frederic Ananou, C. Kühlwetter, Sebastian Ernst, Bryan Hein, Tim Handwerker, Noah Ganaus and Sargis Adamyan.

Team News: Karlsruhe
Karlsruhe manager Christian Eichner has multiple availability issues to deal with. Luca Pfeiffer (Foot surgery) and Efe Kaan Sihlaroglu (Knee surgery) are not ready for selection.
We’re of the thinking that Karlsruhe will likely elect for a 3-5-2 system, settling for Max Weiß, Christoph Kobald, David Herold, Marcel Beifus, Sebastian Jung, Robin Heußer, Nicolai Rapp, Marvin Wanitzek, Dzenis Burnic, Louey Ben Farhat and Bambasé Conté.
🧠
Prediction
In our opinion, Regensburg will likely create enough chances to put one past this Karlsruhe side, although just one goal probably won’t quite prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.
We therefore reckon that it will be a narrow 1-2 win for Karlsruhe after the 90. There looks to be little in this one.
