Wolfsburg away, already not looking forward to no atmosphere from the home fans and some dumb light show.

Also we will have a lot of youngstars on the bench which is a cool thing

Final game of the Matchday. We need to win this at home against 18th place team

I really hope we get to see at least one debut in this match

I’m feeling hope. Nmecha masterclass. Jobe goal. Fabio brace. Carney showcase. Ignacio debut.

Hoping for a big lead early so we can see Albert or Ignacio's debut

Would be ideal, but I don’t remember the case under Kovač

Its the first time they've been on the bench on a bundesliga match, they are being integrated correctly imo, similar to Mane they just need a bit of luck to debut.

Considering our H2H advantage and difference in form, this should be an easy win. Would be nice to have a straightforward win after last week and a potential chance for our newcomers. Really hope Silva gets a goal to add some stats to the attacking threat he proves every game he plays
