Rostock (dpa / mv) - With the big backdrop in the Ostseestadion behind them, second division football club FC Hansa Rostock wants to land their third home win of the season against Hannover 96 today (1.30 p.m. / Sky). "We have a good rhythm at home and want to use the power of the stadium to bring our game onto the pitch," said coach Jens Härtel before the two former Bundesliga clubs met.
The Rostockers have to plan without Simon Rhein. The midfielder is still suffering from a foot injury. The last three newcomers Rick van Drongelen (Union Berlin), Dong-Gyeong Lee (Schalke 04) and Anderson Lucoqui from (Mainz 05) will probably only watch. "We'll get an impression first and have to see if they're an option. They don't have the rhythm," said Hartel.
