The Clover Leaves have hit the woodwork 13 times already this season. Only VfB and Hamburger SV, both with 14, have struck the frame of the goal more often in 2019/20.

Havard Nielsen is in line to make his 100th Bundesliga 2 appearance. The Norwegian striker has scored three of Fürth’s last five goals and has hit the target more often in the last four games (three times) than he did in the previous 19 (two goals).
