That means Ibrahim Maza is likely to drop to the bench for Kasper Hjulmand\u2019s third Bundesliga game in charge of <em>die Werkself<\/em> but it does allow Malik Tillman return to his favoured attacking-midfield position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nathan Tella\u2019s participation is questionable with the Nigerian attacker struggling with a knee problem, and so there could be successive starts for Eliesse Ben Seghir. Claudio Echeverri and Jonas Hofmann remain alternatives, but don\u2019t expect too much to change from Leverkusen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for St. Pauli, Martijn Kaars &#8211; a summer arrival from 2. Bundesliga Magdeburg &#8211; has featured in three of his new club\u2019s four league games this season, but the Dutch forward could earn his first start in place of Andr\u00e9as Hountondji.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Club captain Jackson Irvine continues to recover from a long-term foot injury and Saturday\u2019s game against Bayer Leverkusen is likely to come too soon for the Australian midfielder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>St. Pauli vs Bayer Leverkusen Predicted Line-Ups<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>St. Pauli: <\/strong>Vasilj &#8211; Wahl, Smith, Dzwigala &#8211; Saliakas, Sands, Fujita, Oppie &#8211; Sinani &#8211; Kaars, Pereira Lage<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bayer Leverkusen:<\/strong> Flekken &#8211; Quansah, Bad\u00e9, Tapsoba &#8211; Vazquez, Andrich, Aleix Garcia, Grimaldo &#8211; Tillman, Ben Seghir &#8211; Schick<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>GGFN | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.x.com\/danieljpinder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Pinder<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bayer Leverkusen receive a welcome boost ahead of their game against St. Pauli with Robert Andrich returning to the squad following a one-game suspension.
