Team News

Paderborn
Kaiserslautern
  • Lukas Kwasniok saw Adriano Grimaldi return to fitness last weekend, but the Paderborn boss will be without Felix Platte after he picked up a groin injury.
  • Defender Visar Musliu will serve the final instalment of his suspension this weekend.
  • Dirk Schuster will have centre-back Boris Tomiak available on Friday after he served his suspension last weekend, but the defender may have to settle for a place on the bench here.
  • Only one change is expected from the visitors with Ragnar Ache pushing to start out wide.

Prediction

  • Paderborn scored early in both halves on their trip to the Merkur Spielarena last Saturday as they claimed an impressive away win against a Fortuna Düsseldorf side that attempted 28 shots during the game. That win represents Paderborn's first of the season ahead of the visit of Kaiserslautern.
  • Kaiserslautern also notched their first league win of the season last weekend, beating newly promoted Elversberg 3-2 on home soil after Ragnar Ache and Jean Zimmer helped to turn around a 2-1 deficit in the final 25 minutes of the game. Dirk Schuster's side had lost back-to-back league games heading into that game and remain a concerning prospect despite that victory.
