Sandhausen (dpa / lno) - After the two-week Corona forced break, SV Sandhausen will rotate vigorously in the relegation battle of the 2nd Bundesliga.

With a view to the deadline, coach Gerhard Kleppinger said the day before the home game against Hamburger SV (Thursday, 8.30 p.m. / Sky): “We have a good and balanced squad and have to see how the players cope with the effort.

But I think that we will not get around it and have to swap more often. "

The four professionals who recently tested positive for the corona virus are again part of the training program. Ivan Paurevic and Denis Linsmayer got back on Monday, goalkeeper Stefanos Kapino and Janik Bachmann, who had not yet been infected, returned on Wednesday. Kapino will be back in the starting line-up. "The quartet is operational," said Kleppinger on Wednesday. "We watch very closely how the boys cope with the units and the breaks, but we have agreed that Stefanos will start."

SVS has played two games less than VfL Osnabrück, who is one point more on the relegation rank in the table.

To catch up with Lower Saxony is Kleppinger's first goal.

“Having to start again immediately after the quarantine is definitely not ideal.

But we want to start right away, catch up with Osnabrück and, in the best case scenario, leave Eintracht Braunschweig behind us in order to keep the class straight away, ”said the 63-year-old.
