Without Tyrala

This is called a healthy self-esteem. If the BVB 2 Today (14 clock, Franz-Kremer-Stadion) the next top game of football at the 1st Regionalliga West FC Cologne 2 compete, then Borussen coach Theo Schneider's claims do not under a bushel.

"Of course we want to win," said Schneider, however, also knows that a defeat in Cologne, everything is open again in the ascent struggle. The Rhinelander, Schneider himself appointed to the closest pursuer, would then be up to four points up on the BVB.

Although lacking in Cologne Sebastian Tyrala (fifth yellow card in Bochum), but this puts Marcel Kreutz back into the big team.

"This gives security, both come together to cope well, have four times before Marcel lock successfully played together," Schneider was pleased.

A small difference, there's still, at least, believes Theo Schneider. "We are not under the tight spot, but already Cologne. Let's see how the Cologne deal with this pressure.

This is the first time that 1 FC what has to lose, "Schneider hopes to provide a degree of nervousness at the opponent. Borussia Dortmund 2: Foch - cooking, large Kreutz, Gordon, Schmelzer - Hille, Vrancic, Hillenbrand, Öztekin - Ginczek, Kullmann
