Karlsruher SC - Wolfsburg

Can Karlsruher SC maintain their unbeaten start to the season when they host Wolfsburg at BBBank Wildpark on 29 August 2026? This matchday 3 fixture pits a confident home side against a visiting team looking to find their rhythm. Karlsruher SC are expected to field a side anchored by Marcel Franke and Marvin Wanitzek, aiming to build on their recent 2-1 victory over Preussen Muenster in the DFB Pokal.

Wolfsburg arrive after a challenging draw against VSG Altglienicke and will be without the injured Christian Eriksen for this encounter. With the expected inclusion of Fraser Hornby and Fabian Reese in attack, the visitors will look to replicate the defensive solidity that secured a narrow 1-0 win against Hannover 96 earlier in August. Both sides will be eager to assert control in midfield as they navigate the early stages of the league campaign.
