Latest team news for Wolfsburg vs RB Leipzig
Wolfsburg will be missing several players, including defenders Denis Vavro, Sebastiaan Bornauw and Konstantinos Koulierakis, and goalkeeper Niklas Klinger.
Coach Hasenhuttl used a three-defender formation against Union, with Kilian Fischer, David Odogu, and Yannick Gerhardt likely to continue starting in front of goalkeeper Kamil Grabara.
With midfielder Mattias Svanberg absent, Aster Vranckx will most likely be paired with Maximilian Arnold in midfield.
With Bartosz Bialek and Lovro Majer both injured, the home team will likely rely on Jonas Wind and Patrick Wimmer to support center Mohamed El Amine Amoura.
On the Leipzig side, left-back Benjamin Henrichs is unavailable, meaning David Raum is likely to start alongside Kosta Nedeljkovic, Willi Orban, and Castello Lukeba in defense.
With Forzan Assan Ouedraogo and Xaver Schlager absent from midfield, Arthur Vermeeren and Nicolas Seiwald could be chosen by coach Low to partner in defensive midfield.
Xavi Simons and Ridle Baku are two strong contenders for the wing-back position to support the striker duo of Benjamin Sesko and Lois Openda, especially since Antonio Nusa will be unavailable for Friday's match.

Latest football match prediction: Wolfsburg vs RB Leipzig
Wolfsburg defended solidly for much of the match against Union, with over half of their total expected goals (xG) of 1.19 coming from situations in the second minute. They could have earned a point if Kevin Behrens hadn't missed a golden opportunity from less than a meter away with only one minute left.
Wolves have now failed to score in three consecutive matches and have also conceded only one goal in their last eight games.
Coach Ralph Hasenhuttl has faced Leipzig twice this season, with a 5-1 victory in the Bundesliga on November 30th and a 0-1 defeat in the German Cup on February 26th. However, Wolfsburg has won four of their last six encounters with Leipzig.
However, they have also just suffered a run of three consecutive defeats and have only won two of their last nine matches, drawing five during that period.
At home, Wolfsburg have not won in their last five matches - although they have only lost one - and previously won five of their seven games at the Volkswagen Arena.
RB Leipzig took full advantage of Hoffenheim being reduced to ten men from the 11th minute (when the score was 1-1) to secure their first win under interim manager Zsolt Low, who replaced Marco Rose at the end of March.
"Die Roten Bullen" scored three goals in a single game for the first time after 14 consecutive matches without scoring or with fewer goals, but their total of 44 goals in the Bundesliga this season still makes them the team with the second-worst attack in the top 10.
Currently, Leipzig are only one point behind fourth-placed Mainz 05 and three points behind third-placed Eintracht Frankfurt. However, they are also only three points ahead of Freiburg (seventh), and with six rounds remaining, qualification for European competition is still uncertain.
This team's recent form has been quite inconsistent, with two wins and two losses in their last four matches, scoring six goals and conceding five.
More worrying is Leipzig's away form: they haven't won in their last nine away games, suffering five defeats. In their last five away matches, they've only won one and lost four.
