- 12' Supporters expect more eagerness from Willi Orban, as he is very good at scoring at Red Bull Arena with 4 goals in the last 4 games.
- 17' It looks surprising SV Darmstadt 98 does not make any changes. Kevin Kampl has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 22' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Xavi Simons suffering a number of foals already.
