Going into this one, Magdeburg are without an away win for the past 6 league games.

📰 Team News: Hansa Rostock

Lukas Scherff (Muscle injury) and Elias Höftmann (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be available for Hansa Rostock manager Mersad Selimbegović.

It seems likely that Hansa may well line up in a 3-4-2-1 formation in the match, utilising Markus Kolke, Jonas David, Damian Rossbach, K. Stafylidis, Nico Neidhart, Dennis Dressel, Sebastian Vasiliadis, John-Patrick Strauß, Kai Proger, Svante Ingelsson and Júnior Brumado.

ℹ️ Team News: Magdeburg

Magdeburg boss Christian Titz has to currently contend with reduced team options. Xavier Amaechi (Knee problems), Connor Krempicki (Knee problems), Jean Hugonet (Shoulder injury), Julian Pollersbeck (Torn muscle bundle) and Luc Castaignos (Hamstring injury) are those who can’t be considered.

It’s our belief that Magdeburg will likely play in a 3-4-3 lineup using Dominik Reimann, Tobias Müller, Daniel Elfadli, Daniel Heber, Herbert Bockhorn, Amara Conde, Silas Gnaka, Leon Bell Bell, Mo El Hankouri, Jan Luca Schuler and Baris Atik.
