Team News
Schalke
Karlsruher SC
- Goalkeeper Justin Heekeren didn't train in midweek due to a cold, but will start on Sunday barring exceptional circumstances.
- Schalke will be without star striker Moussa Sylla, who missed the game against FC Köln with a muscle strain.
- Kees van Wonderen will, however, welcome back Paul Seguin after he missed the game against FC Köln through injury.
- Lasse Günther was among four players who returned to the matchday squad last weekend, meaning Karlsruher's injury list now stands at just two names.
- Günther could make the step into the starting line-up on Sunday, while Christian Eichner may also recall Bambase Conte in midfield.
- Up top, the KSC boss has a tough call to make between Fabian Schleusener and Luca Pfeiffer.
