Team News: Klaas-Jan Huntelaar still missing for Schalke 04

Schalke 04 striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar is still missing with the knee ligament injury he suffered in early March and does not make the bench for his side's trip to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Romanian striker Ciprian Marica continues to deputise for Huntelaar and he is supported in attack by Raffael, Michel Bastos and Julian Draxler.

For the hosts it's a reasonably new-look attack with Karim Matmour supported by 17-year-old attacking midfielder Marc Stendera.

Frankfurt: Nikolov; Oczipka, Anderson, Zambrano, Celozzi; Rode, Russ; Inui, Stenders, Aigner; Matmour

Schalke: Hildebrand; Uchida, Howedes, Matip, Kolasinac; Hoger, Neustadter; Bastos, Raffael, Draxler; Marica
