Kick-off!
Kick-off just moments away
Both sets of players enter the field and kick-off is now just moments away. Can Wolfsburg strengthen their push for European football or can St. Pauli give their survival hopes a real boost?
Arnold back in the squad
Wolfsburg make three changes from the side that beat Bremen last weekend but perhaps the most exciting news for the club is that Maximilian Arnold is fit enough to make the bench.
