- Paul Jaeckel is available after suspension, while Kevin Behrens replaces him on the naughty step after picking up five yellow cards. Andras Schäfer is ruled out with a foot injury.
- But barring late injuries coach Urs Fischer has an almost full strength squad at his disposal.
- Florian Wirtz should return after missing last weekend with an upset stomach, but Nadiem Amiri is suspended after picking up five yellow cards.
