Mame Diouf starts for Hannover for the visit of Augsburg in a two-man home attack for the 10th-placed side, with their opponents bottom of the Bundesliga.
Diouf is partnered in attack by Didier Ya Konan, with both forward men managing two league goals apiece so far this season.
The visitors start with Torsten Oehrl in a lone striker role, although support is likely to come from midfield, in particular Jan Moravek.
Hannover: Zieler; Haggui, Cherundolo, Eggimann, Schulz; Rausch, Huszti, Schmiedebach, Stindl; Diouf, Konan
Augsburg: Jentzsch; Klavan, Langkamp, De Jong, Otti; Werner, Baier, Vogt, Musona; Moravek; Oehrl
