The handball players of SG Flensburg-Handewitt are on Thursday (8.45 p.m. / DAZN) in the Champions League home game against Motor Zaporozhye under pressure.
Should there be no victory against the Ukrainian champions, the North Germans, who are currently last in Group B, would be in acute danger of reaching the playoff round.
Flensburg - Zaporozhye, who have already won two games in the preliminary round, described Machulla as an unpleasant opponent.
The use of the Danish backcourt player Mads Mensah Larsen, who had to stop training on Wednesday due to illness, is questionable at SG.
