Match Previews

Boss Struber unwell. Pavlovic is suspended. Gloukh may not play. Sucic and Kameri return. Piatkowski/Morgalla are out. Kjaergaard returns.

Embarrassed themselves before the international break, throwing a two-goal lead away to draw 2-2 against Austria Klagenfurt, having Pavlovic sent off along the way. Should have won; they bossed it for a long time.

Boss Struber had to miss their last match because of illness, and also missed a recent friendly against SV Ried.

Following his dismissal last match, regular CB Pavlovic is suspended. Not a loss; they've got good cover nowadays, especially with Baidoo in great form. Rotation defender Wallner is injured again; not a loss.

Attack is now only a slight problem with Fernando having picked up a new injury; unclear how serious but shouldn't be missed - lots of depth, even with rotation striker Koita injured.

Backup CB Okoh suffered a bad injury in the game against Internazionale, and may not play again in 2023. Fellow rotation defender Piatkowski picked up a knock in a recent friendly; unclear how serious but not a loss.

Midfield regular Kjaergaard is back after injury but may be benched ahead of their European match next week.

Key attacker Sucic and rotation midfielder Kameri both missed their last match due to illness. Both are now available again, although the latter may be omitted.

Backup GK Mantl missing the last match due to personal reasons, and the same applied for a recent friendly. Not an issue whilst Schlager is available.

Israeli wonderkid Gloukh may not play due to what's happening in his homeland at the moment; it's possible it's affected him mentally. Would be a loss if so as he's been amazing this season.

Rotation defender Morgalla picked up an injury whilst playing for Germany U21; unclear how serious. Not a problem if he fails.
