The Bundesliga 2 game at Veltins-Arena on Saturday will see home side Schalke take on opponents Hansa Rostock, and our team has the latest predicted line ups and news on player availability.
Schalke, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after the 0-4 Bundesliga 2 triumph vs Osnabruck. We think that Schalke will possibly use the 4-1-2-1-2 formation for this game and select Marius Müller, Henning Matriciani, Tomas Kalas, Marcin Kaminski, Thomas Ouwejan, Paul Seguin, Yusuf Kabadayi, Ron Schallenberg, Kenan Karaman, Simon Terodde and Keke Topp.
Cédric Brunner, Leo Greiml, Derry Murkin and Brandon Soppy are unavailable for Schalke gaffer Karel Geraerts. The players who will not be able to play in this game through being suspended are Dominick Drexler and Timo Baumgartl.
Possible Schalke team to play Hansa Rostock
Following on from a loss in their previous game against Karlsruhe in Bundesliga 2 competition, Hansa Rostock will be hoping to turn things around here. From our viewpoint, Hansa appear most likely to utilise a 3-4-2-1 formation with a starting lineup of Markus Kolke, Jonas David, Damian Rossbach, Alexander Rossipal, John-Patrick Strauß, Sebastian Vasiliadis, Dennis Dressel, K. Stafylidis, Nils Fröling, Svante Ingelsson and Juan José Perea.
Rostock boss Mersad Selimbegović has some current player fitness concerns. Lukas Scherff (Muscle injury) and Elias Höftmann (Cruciate ligament tear) can’t be considered.
