Josuha Guilavogui has been forced to settle for a spot on the Wolfsburg bench for Saturday's Bundesliga clash with Hoffenheim.

The Frenchman is replaced in the centre of midfield by Junior Malanda, and joins fellow substitutes Nicklas Bendtner and Aaron Hunt on the bench.

Ivica Olic starts in attack for the visitors, with support arriving from midfielders Daniel Caliguiri and Maximilian Arnold as Wolfsburg search for their first win of the season.

There is no room for Kevin Volland in the Hoffenheim lineup as Adam Szalai keeps his place up front after opening his account for the campaign before the international break.

Hoffenheim: Baumann, Beck, Süle, Bicakcic, Strobl, Polanski, Rudy, Salihovic, Firmino, Modeste, Szalai

Wolfsburg: Benaglio, Jung, Naldo, Knoche, Rodriguez, Malanda, Gustavo, Caligiuri, Arnold, De Bruyne, Olic
