Team News

Paderborn
Magdeburg
  • Lukas Kwasniok could make just one change to the side that beat Schalke, with Santiago Castaneda returning in central midfield.
  • This switch will see Sven Michel drop to the bench, and Filip Bilbija will step into a more attacking role.
  • Winger Casper Terho is struggling with a knee injury and is the only injury concern in the Paderborn camp this weekend.
  • Expect at least two changes from Magdeburg following last weekend's humiliating defeat, with Abu-Bekir El-Zein and Philipp Hercher among those pushing for recalls.
  • Emir Kuhinja remains sidelined for FCM, while forward Livan Burcu has been ruled out by manager Christian Titz.
  • Defender Herbert Bockhorn is expected to return to the matchday squad on Saturday afternoon.

Prediction

  • Goals from Marvin Mehlem and Raphael Obermair sealed a 2-0 away win against a struggling Schalke side last weekend as Paderborn's promotion chances took a positive turn at the VELTINS-Arena.
  • Die Ostwestfalen have taken seven points from their previous three 2. Bundesliga outings and are only behind third-placed Elversberg on goal difference.
  • Magdeburg headed into gameweek 32 in control of third place, but Christian Titz's side were humiliated on their own turf by a Preussen Münster side battling relegation with two games remaining.
  • FCM were beaten 5-0 at the Avnet Arena, meaning they have won just one of their previous four league games heading into the penultimate gameweek.
