Baden-Württemberg: Hoffenheim's Rudy goes into the Hertha game with a hand rail

Zuzenhausen (dpa / lsw) - Despite a broken metacarpal, Sebastian Rudy can play for TSG 1899 Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga game at Hertha BSC. The 32-year-old midfielder will play with a rail in Berlin on Sunday (3.30 p.m. / DAZN), as the Kraichgauer announced on Thursday. He suffered the injury, which had to be repaired surgically, during training. Furthermore, the permanently injured Ihlas Bebou, Benjamin Hübner and Ermin Bicakcic are missing in fourth place.

It is possible that the last missing Dane Robert Skov will return to the team on the flank. "I haven't decided yet whether he will start straight away," said coach André Breitenreiter. Skov's competitor Angeliño has also trained very well over the past two weeks. Breitenreiter celebrates his 49th birthday on Sunday. "There are no special reward measures," he said of the victory he naturally wanted: the team should reward themselves above all.
