Overview

• 1. FC Kaiserslautern enter the trip on a run of three straight wins, which the coach says has not softened training standards.
• The match kicks off Saturday at 13:00 on Sky, with only one point separating Kaiserslautern and SC Paderborn.
• Lieberknecht describes Paderborn as very variable and frames the game as on eye level requiring maximum effort for points.
• Long-term absentees Simon Asta and Kenny Prince Redondo remain unavailable for the squad traveling to Ostwestfalen.
• Emphasizing focus on the league’s fine margins, Lieberknecht says he now watches almost only the 2. Bundesliga.
