Team News

St. Pauli
Osnabrueck
  • Defensive duo Eric Smith and Lars Ritzka should both return to the starting XI on Sunday afternoon.
  • Right-back Manolis Saliakas is suspended after he was sent off during the defeat to Hamburg, so expect Connor Metcalfe to deputise on the right.
  • Expect at least two changes from Osnabrück boss Uwe Koschinat this weekend with Robert Tesche and Christian Conteh pushing for recalls.
  • Lars Kehl is closing in on a return following a lengthy injury lay-off with a broken ankle.

Prediction

  • St. Pauli were unable to score against fierce city rivals Hamburg last Friday as their title aspirations took a major hit at the Volksparkstadion. That 1-0 defeat means that Holstein Kiel have returned to the top of the standings, while Fortuna Düsseldorf are just four points further back in third place. Victory here, however, will confirm promotion to the Bundesliga.
  • Osnabrück were relegated in brutal fashion on Tuesday night, losing 4-0 against Schalke in a game that was meant to be played at home, but was instead played at Sunday's hosts' Millerntor-Stadion. Uwe Koschinat's side have picked up just one point from their last four league games and have nothing to play for in gameweek 33.
