Familiar faces

There will be a reunion with Marcin Kaminski this weekend. The Pole was under contract in Stuttgart for five years before joining a recently relegated Schalke side in summer 2021 and helping them return to the top flight at the first attempt. He also won promotion with VfB in 2017 and 2020.

Goals galore

Personnel

Serhou Guirassy (adductor muscle) and Pascal Stenzel (thigh) are both definitely out of the game.

Other

Borna Sosa (99 competitive matches for VfB) and Führich (49) could both reach landmark appearance milestones at Schalke.
