Eintracht Braunschweig - Greuther Fürth

Here we have a match where both teams had some surprise on their side recent years with the promotion to Bundesliga but they can not hold the highest class in Germany and both were relegated after one year only. Nevertheless both teams try to get back to 1.Bundesliga but they do not say this to often. Above all Braunschweig talk only from a good and stable season while Fürth is much more aggressiv for this aim. After relegation they had a good season in 2.BL and was only stopped in both matches against Hamburger SV otherwise they would have returned immediately. The season is not the best for both Fürth started well and had a downtrend in the past while Braunschweig had a lot of problems recently above all on the road they are very weak and they are only a mid-table team now. The same problems has Fürth, also very good at home but on the road they are not able to get much what speaks a clear language at the moment.

After the last bad results Braunschweig has some pressure today if they do not fall down more. This is an important one to come out of the break with a good feeling and start a better future above all on the road next weekend. Coach Lieberknecht talk a lot under the week and he has very good words about his team and he trust them anyway, and he is very positive that they can start a good run now. Nevertheless they should start sooner or later if they do not want that they fall behind much as at the moment. Not much changes expected compared to the starting lineup in Ingolstadt where they lost a bit unlucky 0-1 because they played a good first half there. The only change maybe in attack where veteran Kruppke can be replaced by young Bakenga. All the other positions are the same because they have not much pressure from the subs at the moment.

It is not easy these days in Fürth for Coach Kramer, the away results are not very good and according to the news they miss a lot of players today. This makes the match for them not very easy anyway and away from home additional difficult. They miss already keeper Hesl, Wurtz, Trinks, Mohr and Azemi but this time they have already more out. To the names above they miss additional Lam, Pledl, Korcsmar and George who are all not available due to their injuries. Of course they have a lot of potential in their squad and they can beat every team in this league also with a limited squad. For today they have only stand-by-profi Kleine, youngsters Kartalis and Cinar and maybe Wurtz (not ready and a doubt anyway) on the bench. So this means that they have a problem if one or two from the starting lineup are not ready to play or maybe must be replaced under the game. They have almost the same starting lineup on the pitch which won 2-0 against Aue before the break. Only Lam and Pledl must be replaced according to the reason mentioned above. This means that they have some rotations in team where Schröck and Gießelmann changes their normally positions. Maybe they can count on Tom Weilandt again who is in great shape right now.
