We will, of course, do everything we can to win this game. Firstly, because we always want to do everything we can to win games anyway. And secondly, especially after the second half against Elversberg, we still feel the need to stay focused and continue to perform. It's not as if anyone is letting up; we're fully committed. And accordingly, I expect a game in which both teams will be playing for the win.
Christian Eichner, head coach of Karlsruher SC, at the pre-match press conference: „I expect two teams to play for the win on Sunday. We will definitely be playing for the win, and I believe our opponents will too, regardless of the situation. Therefore, the game will show who will prevail. I don’t expect a draw on Sunday.“
