Christian Ilzer on facing Hamburg

"This is a very attractive home game to close out the year against a big club. Hamburg are a team with several weapons in their repertoire and can hurt us on many levels. Their derby win against Bremen has naturally boosted their confidence. We need to have a very precise plan to be prepared for that. We have to be aggressive.”

Merlin Polzin on facing Hoffenheim

"Hoffenheim have a really young squad, with a lot of potential and quality. They are always able to make the day uncomfortable for the opponent, a lot of the game is played in transition when you’re up against them. That, paired with the quality and experience of a number of individual stars across multiple positions, means we’ve got an intense test up ahead of us."
