Without doubt it is more complicated to play with pressure, however the championship is still open and has chances to leave the zone and relegation, so expect to win a good result in this round. For this match, coach Jeff Strasser will not be able to count on Mads Albaek, Marius Müller, Marcel Correia, Osayam Osawe and Kacper Przybylkoque in the medical department, in addition to B. Kessel, who will be suspended.

In 17 games in this competition, only managed 2 turns on the scoreboard in the 8 games in which he suffered the first goal.
The Nuremberg have been campaigning very positively so far and with the victory in the previous round has been able to enter the zone of direct access, so much that the minimum that waits is to remain where it is. The team knows that with a win they can even take the lead and at least expect to play their part in the quest for the three points, and if they win their game and there is a stumble the Holstein Kiel will be at the top of the table. For this match coach Michael Köllner will not be able to count on Sebastian Kerk who is in the medical department.
