Düsseldorf Five games will be played at the end of the 17th matchday of the Bundesliga on Wednesday. The encounters at a glance.
<!–
FC Schalke 04 – 1. FC Köln (Wednesday, 6.30 p.m.)
–
SITUATION: The bottom light against the third from bottom: More relegation battle is hardly possible. Schalke have lost seven of the last nine league games. The FC remained goalless in the last five games without a win.
–
STATISTICS: Cologne have been unbeaten in six Bundesliga games against Schalke. In addition, there were no more league victories against any other club (37).
–
STAFF: At Schalke, Schöpf, Sané and Boujellab are questionable. Cologne has to plan without Kainz and Andersson.
–
SPECIAL: Schalke’s coach Gross and Cologne sports director Heldt worked together for a total of seven months in Stuttgart in 2009/10. VfB sports director was Jochen Schneider.
–
RB Leipzig – 1. FC Union Berlin (Wednesday, 8.30 p.m.)
–
SITUATION: Leipzig has not won twice in a row recently. If you don’t want to lose sight of Bayern at the end of the first half, you have to win. Union comes to Leipzig with the success against Leverkusen, had not lost against Dortmund and Bayern either.
–
STATISTICS: Both teams have met twice in the Bundesliga. The results speak clearly in favor of Leipzig. The Saxons won both games, scored seven goals and conceded only one.
–
STAFF: Leipzig still has to do without Konaté, Szoboszlai and Henrichs. At Union, Hübner is missing, who injured himself in a duel during training.
–
SPECIAL: The Union fans do not accept the Leipzig club that was built with marketing money. The third duel takes place on the 55th birthday of the Berlin club.
–
SC Freiburg – Eintracht Frankfurt (Wednesday, 8.30 p.m.)
–
SITUATION: With a further success, Eintracht can increase the gap on the competitor by one European Cup place to six points. Before the 1: 2 at FC Bayern, SC Freiburg had a club record of five wins in a row.
–
STATISTICS: If Eintracht wins, it would be the best first half of the season under coach Hütter with 29 points. If the sports club wins, the best first half series would be canceled with 26 points.
–
STAFF: It is unclear whether striker Jovic, on loan from Real Madrid, will be in the starting line-up for Frankfurt. The use of defense chief Hinteregger is also questionable. At Freiburg’s Santamaria there was “a remaining chance”. The banned courtier and the injured Abrashi are certainly not there.
–
SPECIAL: Frankfurt’s Kostic is facing his 200th Bundesliga game.
–
FC Augsburg – FC Bayern Munich (Wednesday, 8.30 p.m.)
–
SITUATION: Bayern are already in the first half of the first half of the season before the last game of the Hinserie. In the home-weak Augsburgers, the table leadership should be consolidated.
–
STATISTICS: Bayern striker Robert Lewandowski could improve his first round record of 21 goals.
–
STAFF: Attacker Gnabry was able to train again at Bayern and should be available. At FCA, defender Iago is fit again. On the offensive, Richter is again an option after being suspended from yellow and red.
–
SPECIAL: Süle returns to Augsburg with bitter memories. In Bayern’s 2-2 draw against FCA, the defender tore a cruciate ligament in the WWK Arena in October 2019.
–
Arminia Bielefeld – VfB Stuttgart (Wednesday, 8.30 p.m.)
–
SITUATION: Bielefeld left the relegation zone after four points from two games. VfB is within striking distance of the international places.
–
STATISTICS: Arminia have been without a win against VfB for eight competitive games. The last success came at home on December 15, 2007 (2-0).
–
STAFF: The people of Bielefeld still have to do without Prietl, Niemann and Voglsammer. For the Swabians, the absence of the two yellow-banned Gonzalez and Wamangituka hurts. Winger Thommy could be back in the squad for the first time since August.
–
SPECIAL: The Stuttgarters have achieved all five previous victories of the season abroad. With 17 of a possible 24 points, they led the away table before the 17th matchday.
