Key Takeaways
- Robin Zentner has been out injured since November with an adductor problem.
- Daniel Batz has been the first-choice goalkeeper during this period.
- Coach Urs Fischer refuses to confirm who will start against FC St. Pauli.
Robin Zentner is ready to fight for his place in the Mainz team. The German goalkeeper has not played since November because of an adductor injury.
Daniel Batz took over between the posts during this time. He has played as the first-choice keeper while Zentner recovered.
Now, Zentner is fit again. He could return for Sunday’s Bundesliga clash against FC St. Pauli.
However, coach Urs Fischer will not reveal his plans. He spoke to the media on Friday but stayed quiet about his goalkeeper decision.
“Let yourself be surprised,” Fischer told reporters. He would not say if Zentner will start ahead of Batz.
The answer will come on Sunday afternoon. Supporters must wait for the official line-up announcement before the match at the MEWA Arena.
