It’s been less than two years since the two clubs met. At that time the KFC Uerdingen and Preußen Münster belonged to the third division. On Saturday (2 p.m.) they will meet again one class lower – in the regional league. And of course not in the Grotenburg stadium, but in Velbert. That the Prussians made a guest appearance in Krefeld was on March 23, 2005.
It is unlikely that there will be a meeting in the silk city next year for two reasons: on the one hand, it is anything but certain that the Uerdingen will be able to keep the class, on the other hand, the Prussians have hopes for advancement. The division of roles between the bottom and the runner-up in the table is correspondingly clear. “The constellation is not an issue, I am not addressing that at all. It will be difficult, but it always is, regardless of whether we play against the first, second, 14th or 15th, ”says the new KFC coach Alexander Voigt. He also keeps silent about the 11-0 defeat against leaders Rot-Weiss Essen. “That was before my time and shouldn’t matter.”

However, the past few weeks have left their mark. “In training, you notice in some situations that the players are thinking,” says Voigt and adds: “But not kinked, but because they want to do it particularly well.” The coach admits that one or the other is troubling that “points were given in five or six bars in the last few minutes. That depends on it. ”Therefore, winning a point against Münster would be“ important for the head, even if that wouldn’t help us decisively in the table ”.

But even if the KFC is a blatant outsider in the game, Voigt does not want to block a point. “Prussia is a top team, mature and professional. You will have more possession, but we want to play more aggressively and better forward, with more players, ”said the coach. “We want to offer something to the audience.”

The suspended Jesse Sierck and Erdinc Karakas will be missing as well as the long-term injuries. For Sierck, Luca Jensen will move into central defense despite a bruised nose, possibly with a mask. Kevin Nitika is ready for action again after his meniscus tear, but the 26-year-old Belgian will initially take a seat on the bench.
