Impact Schnellbacher appears to have overcome the minor issue that kept him out of Elversberg's recent 3-2 friendly win over Hoffenheim, with his involvement in training suggesting he is ready to return to competitive action. The forward has made just two Bundesliga appearances this season and has been an unused substitute on two other occasions, limiting his importance to the starting lineup. While he should be available against Union Berlin, Schnellbacher is expected to remain a depth option in attack rather than push for a starting role.

Impact Schnellbacher missed the friendly against TSG Hoffenheim due to a slight injury, with the club providing no further details on the issue or its severity. His availability for Saturday's Bundesliga match at 1.

Recovers from illness Schnellbacher is available off the bench for Sunday's match against Schalke 04 after dealing with a cold.

Impact Schnellbacher is fit enough to be included in the matchday squad after his availability had been uncertain due to illness. The forward remains on the bench Sunday, continuing the substitute role he has primarily occupied this season. His return therefore provides manager Vincent Wagner with another attacking option during the match without altering the usual starting setup.

Doubtful against Schalke Schnellbacher's availability for Sunday's match against Schalke 04 remains uncertain due to a cold, according to coach Vincent Wagner.

Impact Schnellbacher is dealing with a cold and remains questionable for Sunday's match against Schalke 04. The forward has primarily been used as a substitute this season, so his potential absence should have a limited impact on Wagner's starting XI. He could still provide an option off the bench if cleared to play, but his current illness could leave him out of the squad altogether.
