Schalke 04 striker Adam Szalai has been restored to the starting lineup for the home clash against Stuttgart in the Bundesliga.

Szalai's start means that Kevin-Prince Boateng drops back into attacking midfield alongside Julian Draxler and Jefferson Farfan.

Vedad Ibisevic leads the line for Stuttgart with Alexandru Maxim playing just off him, while Timo Werder is preferred to Martin Harnik.

Schalke: Fahrmann; Uchida, Howedes, Matip, Fuchs; Neustadter, Jones, Farfan, Boateng, Draxler; Szalai

Stuttgart: Ulreich; Schwaab, Niedermeier, Rudiger, Rausch; Kvist, Gentner; Traore, Maxim, Werner; Ibisevic
