die Adler face troubling absences

Searching to find their way to the top half of the table, Friedhelm Funkel is juggling die Adler starting eleven with a number troubling injuries as Wolfsburg come to Waldstadion. Last week Eintracht looked to be heading to a victory over Köln before Slovenia international Milivoje Novakovič scored twice to bring the match to a draw and they will need to come up big against Wolfsburg if they are come out with the full three points.

In addition to Ioannis Amanatidis, Zlatan Bajramović, Ümit Korkmaz, Christoph Preuß and Christoph Spycher out with injuries, Friedhelm Funkel will also miss Chris who was red-carded last week. Martin Fenin, who had a cold this week, appears fine and other than using Aleksandar Vasoski for Chris, there will be no changes from last weeks lineup.

Rating chances even at a victory, the manager can look for continued growth with Alexander Meier and Nikola Petković. Wolfsburg has had a lot of difficulty winning away from home, no co-incidence that few of their fans travel for matches and have yet to win once this year on the road. They are sweating the fitness of goalkeeper Diego Benaglio and Sascha Riether for the match, which could be key as they are one of the worst defending on the road in the Bundesliga.
