SV Sandhausen - FSV Frankfurt

2.Bundesliga Premiere for SV Sandhausen where they hosts FSV Frankfurt who are a bit in trouble with line up today. Around 5.000 supporters are expected today. Sandhausen has one of the lowest budget with only 4,0 Mio. In this case they could not sign a lot of players because they have to bring their stadium to 2nd league standard too.

For this reasen Coach Dais has to count on a team which was already there in their 3rd league season. Only a few players maybe can hope for a place in the starting line up. For both places on the wing they signed Kim Falkenberg and Timo Aachenbach, both from Alemannia Aachen. Also for defense came Fabio Morena from FC St. Pauli but he is a doubt today. Also not sure if David Ulm can play today due to light injury. In offense they signed with fast Nicky Adler a former player from Wacker Burghausen and 1860 Munich. The situation is a bit unknown for them because it is their first match in 2nd Bundesliga but the motivation and self confidence should be high above all in the first matches. And the opportunity is big for a surprise or win at beginning for newcomers.

What a desaster for FSV Frankfurt. The whole pre season was market by injuries which it was very difficult for the coach and team to prepare well. Therefore they miss a lot of players today. Many of them are sure starters what makes it additional difficult for Coach Möhlmann to find the right balance. Butt he possibilities are rather limited as well.  Zafer Yelen, Macel Gaus, Ju-Tae Yun and Gledson stayed in Frankfurt while Yannik Stark and Mathew Leckie travel with the team. But for sure they are not ready after their injuries and have a huge fitness deficit. These guys are only for bench. With these missings not much left to choose for Möhlmann and in this case he has to bring new signed players like Heubach, Jung and Verhoek, but all are very young. Edmond Kapllani from FC Augsburg should give his debut today as well. So let’s see how FSV can cope with the missings.
