Team News

St. Pauli
Holstein Kiel
  • Star midfielder Jackson Irvine suffered ankle ligament damage while on international duty with Australia and is set for an extended spell on the sidelines.
  • Compatriot Connor Metcalfe should replace Irvine in an elsewhere unchanged starting XI on Sunday.
  • No changes are expected from Marcel Rapp as he prepares his side for a testing trip to the Millerntor-Stadion.
  • Versatile wide man Jonas Sterner has suffered a knee injury and will be absent for at least a month as he steps up his recovery.

Prediction

  • St. Pauli were forced to settle for a point on their trip to Eintracht-Stadion two weeks ago as a late goal from substitute Thorir Helgason pegged Fabian Hürzeler's men back. Sunday's hosts sit down in ninth place heading into gameweek six but are one of just three unbeaten sides in the division having followed up their opening-day win with four successive stalemates.
  • Holstein Kiel responded perfectly to Robert Leipertz's early goal in their last league game, coming from behind to win in style in front of a jubilant Holstein-Stadion crowd. Marcel Rapp's men have started the season in fine form, recording four wins from five games and securing their place in the top two ahead of the international break.
