Previous manager has been fired, first game of temporary coach

Match will be played behind closed doors

Team will be managed by Matthias Kaltenbach, Michael Rechen, Timo Gross coaching trio until the end of season

Captain Benjamin Hübner is suspended following his red card last weekend. If Stefan Posch shakes off the nock that saw him subbed off with five minutes to go against Fortuna, look for him to cover for Hübner with Pavel Kaderabek returning to the team at right-back.

Schreuder departed Hoffenheim on Tuesday with a win ratio of 40 percent. The club were undefeated in four games.

This is one of the highest-scoring fixtures in Bundesliga history. Eight competitive games between these sides have resulted in 29 goals - nearly four per match.

Hoffenheim's 42 goals have been scored by 13 different players. Kramaric leads the way with seven, one more than Baumgartner.

Julian Nagelsmann: "Mattias Kaltenbach's new coaching staff won't drastically change the way Hoffenheim play. Though they'll be ambitious and will look to integrate one or two new things. However, when they're under pressure, the team will revert to old patterns. But I know the new head coach's basic habits and am well prepared. The Hoffenheim game is extremely important for us, and we really want to take all three points. So we need to be mentally and physically fit. In order to allow this to be shown on the pitch, we did a reduced training regime this week. I'm pretty optimistic an think that we can avoid another draw if we put away our chances. The remaining fixtures are pretty similar for Dortmund, Leverkusen and us. Gladbach face Bayern, which is an extra task. So nobody has a particular advantage in this regard. These four sides are also not taking too much. But we have the advantage and can influence the situation ourselves. We need three wins for it all to be done."

Dayot Upamecano is suspending following his sending off last time out against Paderborn. Marcel Sabitzer has returned to team training and will likely travel with the squad for Friday's game. Yussuf Poulsen is still out through injury. Ethan Ampadu has returned to training following his back problems, but on an individual regimen. Ibrahima Konaté is fit. But it's not been decided whether he will be in the squad for Hoffenheim. - reported by the official website of Leipzig

Werner is enjoying his best-ever season in front of goal, with 25 scored in 30 games. He has scored seven against Hoffenheim, including two in the reverse fixture.

Leipzig coach Nagelsmann left Hoffenheim for the Red Bull Arena last June having won 44 percent of his games with the Sinsheimers - a club record.

Only league leaders Bayern Munich (30) have conceded fewer goals than Leipzig (32) this term, despite the fact that Nagelsmann has tested 12 different players in three-, four- and five-man backlines.
