First-choice goalkeeper Michael Esser is set to return for the Lilies. Midfielder Jerome Gondorf missed the trip to Leipzig through suspension, but should come straight back into the side for Sandro Sirigu, who is now suspended. USMNT international Terrence Boyd may also get a start against Bayer in place of Sven Schipplock as Torsten Frings looks to freshen his team up during this busy period.

Kevin Kampl missed the 3-3 draw with Wolfsburg through a knock, but he is expected to have shaken that off for this game. The midfielder is set to come back into the team for the suspended Charles Aranguiz. Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez was a surprising absentee on Sunday after returning from international duty with Mexico with a muscle injury. It is still unknown whether he will be fit for this encounter.
