Thomas Keller - Out for opener Keller (knee) is out for Saturday's match against St. Pauli, according to manager Frank Schmidt. "Therefore, it is as recently that all, except for the two long-term injured Julian...

Impact Keller still is dealing with issues from his torn ACL dating back to November last season, as he will miss Saturday's season opener. Luckily for the club, this shouldn't be a major absence, as even when he was fit last season, he only appeared off the bench twice for two minutes. No timetable is in place for his return, although he shouldn't need much longer after nearly a year out.
