Ibrahim Afellay has been deployed back in the Schalke starting lineup against Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga this afternoon.

The 26-year-old winger started on the bench against Montpellier in the Champions League in midweek, but will make his third start in the German top flight for the Royal Blues.

Lewis Holtby and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar will be the two forwards for Schalke at the Veltins-Arena.

Srdjan Lakic is back in the Wolfsburg lineup after being left out "for a pause for reflection" a week ago.

Schalke: Unnerstall, Howedes, Uchida, Fuchs, Matip, Afellay, Hoger, Farfan, Neustadter, Holtby, Huntelaar

Wolfsburg: Benaglio, Pogatetz, Naldo, Rodriguez, Schafer, Josue, De Freitas, Knoche, Diego, Srdjan Lakic
