Speaking at Monday’s press conference, manager Daniel Farke is also hopeful of having James Justin available, despite the defender requiring stitches in his leg in the same game.

Noah Okafor (hamstring) remains out.

“[Rodon] had some problems with his hamstring. At the beginning, it wasn’t clear whether it was just cramp or a light injury. We have assessed him, also scanned him, and it seems like he will be okay. As things stand, I expect him to be available for tomorrow. It looks okay.

“The only little question mark after the last game was James Justin. There was a straight leg against him – and you know, a foul was against him was given! – and he need to be stitched after the game because he was full of blood but he’s also a tough boy. So, I have also hopes that he’s available for tomorrow.

“As it stands, I expect just Noah Okafor to be out for this game.” – Daniel Farke

As for the possibility of rotation, Farke seemed to downplay the likelihood of that.

“I’ll be honest, in this turnaround, I’m not too concerned about the load from the weekend and the ability to recover because I’m always a bit more careful when we have an evening kick-off, for example, and then travel and you arrive home in the middle of the night and you don’t have a proper night. This time around, firstly, it’s also for Sunderland more or less the same [turnaround]. They have additionally even the travel. For us, it’s also we have three proper nights between the games, so could sleep three times proper, don’t have travel, so they can sleep more or less in their own beds. We have more than 72 hours between the games. If, on this level, you’re not capable to recover after 72 hours, then you shouldn’t play professional football.” – Daniel Farke
