Different signs before this encounter today while Kaiserlsautern played a good opener and won their match easy against Paderborn 1-0, of course they could have won higher but missed to much above all Idrissou had not his best day in front of the goal. Had Ingolstadt much more problems, sure they played overall well and constant also with much more ball possession but made to many individual mistakes above all Morales gives two away for Aue who could win in the end 2-1. So Ingolstadt started with the same problems as last season but they are not chanceless at Betzenberg. They count on their strength away from home from last season, hopefully they are still there. Kaiserslautern is the big favorite in this encounter but coach Kurz know how to play against them and bring them in danger because he was Coach there after he was sucked 2012. Some motivation additional against his former club and also to push his team and find the right attitude to steal some points. Huge task as with the good start Kaiserlsautern has the fans in their back again and the euphoria is huge at the moment. That all go the normal way Coach Foda is warning his team that they must be as concentrate as they can because in every match they must start from new.
Against last season Kaiserslautern has a much bigger squad above all in midfield and up front Foda can choose from a lot and therefore no one is safe. He can change for every match and this can lead to a higher position fight in training sessions. A lot of quality there and the players push each other to the next level what makes it more easy for the coach too. Some indicate from Foda that he wants to change was mentioned already under the week. He can count on a more offensive style of play above all at home and therefore bring some players who stand for this. But overall, not decided. So he has some options with Stöger, Drazan, Wooten, Borysiuk, Jenssen and Fortounis who were all not in the starting lineup against Paderborn, instead of these guys Karl, Ring, Matmour and Gaus played. So let’s see what his decision is today.
On the other side Ingolstadt must change anyway. Their weakest man from last match Morales is suspended and he was the guy who put Aue in a good position with his two big mistakes. Maybe Kurz is very happy that he has not the problem to bring him again, so he can change without worries. On an interview he mentioned that he can figure with the return of Groß beside Knasmüller on the position in central midfield. Also Jessen should be huge motivated because he is on loan and wants to show his potential but he was not in the starting lineup last weekend. Instead of him Kurz counts on Soares but it can be different today. Moreover there can be more changes but Kurz does not want to tell more about his lineup. The only thing he mentioned is that this match can be a good one for them above all his team has not the pressure and is not favorite anyway. So he can play much more relaxed but of course focused enough to hurt Kaiserslautern a bit.
