Erzgebirge Aue will do battle with visiting team Holstein Kiel at Erzgebirgsstadion in their Bundesliga 2 meeting on Friday, and we have the latest injury news and predicted line ups to hand.
Erzgebirge Aue will be hoping to return to winning ways here following a 2-0 Bundesliga 2 losing effort in their last game against SV Sandhausen. We are thinking that Aue look set to opt for a 4-4-2 formation for the game, beginning the first half with Martin Männel, John Patrick Strauß, Anthony Barylla, Gaëtan Bussmann, Dirk Carlson, Antonio Jonjic, Clemens Fandrich, Philipp Riese, Ben Zolinski, Dimitrij Nazarov and Prince Osei Owusu.
Ramzi Ferjani, Omar Sijaric, Ognjen Gnjatic, Florian Ballas, Malcolm Cacutalua and Sören Gonther will not be taking part for Aue gaffer Marc Hensel.
Possible Erzgebirge Aue team versus Holstein Kiel
Holstein Kiel come into this meeting following a 1-0 Bundesliga 2 win to beat Fortuna Dusseldorf in their previous outing. We believe Holstein Kiel appear most likely to make use of a 3-5-2 system, starting Thomas Dähne, Phil Neumann, Simon Lorenz, Marco Komenda, Julian Korb, Alexander Mühling, Lewis Holtby, Finn Porath, Fabian Reese, Fin Bartels and Benedikt Pichler.
Due to a mostly available group of players, there’s only the lone fitness worry for the Holstein Kiel boss Marcel Rapp to contend with. Noah Awuku (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) won’t be playing here.
