Aue (AP) - Coach Dirk Schuster from the second division soccer club FC Erzgebirge Aue expects a tricky task after the coach change with the upcoming opponent SV Sandhausen.
«It is difficult to judge with which formation and tactical route Sandhausen is coming.
It is a bit like a surprise bag and we fish a bit in the murky, ”said Schuster at the press conference on Thursday.
SV Sandhausen parted ways with head coach Uwe Koschinat on Tuesday after just two points from the last five games.
A successor has not yet been determined.
Schuster adjusts his team to different systems and lineups before the away game on Saturday (1 p.m. / Sky).
«The main focus is clearly on us.
After a good performance against Darmstadt, we raised the bar to a height that we can reach again, but also have to reach in order to be able to hold our own against a highly motivated team from Sandhausen, ”explained Schuster.
The 52-year-old is certain that his team will develop “greed to get the next points in order to further multiply the currently positive feeling”.
After nine match days, the Saxons are in seventh place in the table with twelve points.
«That shouldn't be a pillow for us to rest.
We have to keep on fire and give full throttle in order to continue to earn points and have a quiet Christmas ”, emphasized Schuster.

While central defender Steve Breitkreuz should return to the squad after a calf injury has healed, the Auers in Sandhausen will still have to do without Malcolm Cacutalua, Erik Majetschak, Fabian Kalig (all long-term injuries) and substitute goalkeeper Philipp Klewin (corona quarantine).
