Magdeburg will defensiv stabiler werden und setzt auf neue Optionen gegen Bielefeld.

Overview

  • Magdeburg travel to promoted Arminia Bielefeld on Friday at 18:30 in the 26,000-seat Schüco-Arena with three points from four matches.
  • Fiedler says lapses in concentration and individual defensive errors turned winnable home games against Braunschweig (0:1) and Fürth (4:5) into defeats.
  • The coach demands a stable performance and a top display to return with three points, citing the team’s defensive grit shown in the 2:1 win at Dresden.
  • Recent signings Ado Onaiwu and Maximilian Breunig are pushing for attacking roles in training, with Breunig having scored in a test against Aue.
  • Alexander Ahl-Holmström is available after hand surgery, while Laurin Ulrich and Lubambo Musonda only rejoined training today, leaving selection decisions pending.
