Simon Jentzsch is injured again and will be replaced by Mohamed Amsif.
Jan-Ingwer Callsen-Bracker could replace the injured Paul Verhaegh at right-back.
In defensive midfield, Andreas Ottl should get another chance to start alongside Kevin Vogt, with Daniel Baier switching to a more attack-minded role to add stability.
Ja-Cheol Koo and Knowledge Musona compete for the spot on the right wing.
Prediction
Frankfurt have not been able to keep up their pace and form from the beginning of the season, but they still perform solidly, especially at home.
Augsburg are last in the table and have only won one game so far. They need to improve in many areas, defensively as well as on the attack.
Expect Frankfurt to dominate the game from the outset and Augsburg to wait for their chances on the break.
