Team News

Magdeburg
Nuernberg
  • Herbert Bockhorn, Lubmabo Musonda and Emir Kuhinja remain sidelined with injuries, while Mohammed El Hankouri is unavailable due to an illness.
  • With El Hankouri sidelined, Christian Titz may hand a start to Connor Krempicki in central midfield.
  • Finn Jeltsch has departed for Stuttgart with Miroslav Klose making it clear that Tim Drexler will replace him in the back three.
  • Jens Castrop missed the game against Darmstadt due to the concussion protocol, but should start here.

Prediction

  • Magdeburg brushed off a late Schalke revival last Saturday as they stormed to a 5-2 away win at the VELTINS-Arena, aided by four goals from Martijn Kaars. FCM have climbed to third in the standings after a six-match unbeaten streak, although bizarrely, they remain winless on home soil this season.
  • Substitute Tim Drexler was the hero for Nürnberg last weekend as his 85th-minute goal sealed a narrow home win against Darmstadt. Miroslav Klose's side have won each of their last three league games on home soil, but have lost four in succession on the road.
