Martin Stranzl returns from a heavy flu to replace Roel Brouwers at centre-back.
In defensive midfield, Thorben Marx will start ahead of Granit Xhaka again.
Luuk de Jong will most likely start ahead of Mike Hanke up front.
Prediction
Nürnberg lost at Dortmund last weekend and the team needs to regain confidence now in order to avoid slipping into the relegation battle in the next few weeks.
Gladbach have turned things around in the last few months after a poor start to the season. The European places are in sight if they continue to perform well as a team.
Expect this to be competitive game from the outset.
