Holstein Kiel arrive at Merck-Stadion am Böllenfalltor on Saturday for their Bundesliga 2 meeting with Darmstadt. Let’s check on the predicted line ups and player availability.
Darmstadt will be looking for an improved result here after the 3-1 Bundesliga 2 loss in their previous game against Dynamo Dresden. In all likelihood, Darmstadt will probably employ a 4-2-3-1 system this time, beginning the first half with Marcel Schuhen, Sergio López, Aleksandar Vukotic, Matej Maglica, Raoul Petretta, Kai Klefisch, Hiroki Akiyama, Marco Richter, Killian Corredor, Luca Marseiler and Isac Lidberg.
Matthias Bader, Fraser Hornby and Bartosz Bialek won’t be able to feature for Darmstadt gaffer Florian Kohfeldt. Patric Pfeiffer cannot play in this game through suspension.
Possible Darmstadt team to take on Holstein Kiel
In their previous game, Holstein Kiel drew 1-1 in the Bundesliga 2 match with Elversberg. We are inclined to think that Holstein Kiel appear most likely to begin the game with a 4-3-3 lineup, settling for Timon Weiner, Ivan Nekic, Marko Ivezic, David Zec, John Tolkin, Andu Kelati, Jonas Meffert, Umut Tohumcu, Adrian Kapralik, Phil Harres and Jonas Therkelsen.
Kiel boss Marcel Rapp has multiple availability issues to deal with. Steven Skrzybski (Torn muscle bundle), Patrick Erras (concussion), Carl Johansson (Knee problems) and Hamza Muqaj (Knee injury) will not be playing here. Marko Ivezic cannot play in this game through suspension.
