Veteran Egyptian Hany Ramzy, who suffered an unfortunate knee injury in the first game of the season, is still out of action as is expected. However, recently, Kaiserslautern are not on form, and after their latest loss they sunk into the relegation zone.

Will Ramzy make another return?

Twenty games have been played in the league so far. More than half of the matches, eleven to be precise, have been lost by Kaiserslautern. Six have been won, with three drawn.

Since the winter break, Ramzy's club has played three matches. The first ended in a win for also struggling side 1860 Munchen, the game ending 2-1 with all games coming in the first half. The Kaiserslautern goal came as an equaliser from Lockvenc, but the opposition still managed to win.

The second match saw Kaiserslautern win against bottom placed club. It was an important game for Kaiser, and they won it at home. On-form Lockvenc scored after 23 minutes of play.

Then Kaiserslautern were away to top place club. Werder Bremen have a nine point difference between them and second place Bayern Munich! Kaiser lost 1-0, after a great game. It was a shame that the goal came in in stoppage time.

These matches have all been close, but Ramzy's club are however in the relegation zone now. About three fifths of the league has been played, and the bottom half is shown below.

10th: Hannover 96: 24 points
11th: Freiburg: 24 points
12th: Hansa Rostock: 23 points
13th: 1860 Munchen: 23 points
14th: Monchengladbach: 20 points
15th: Hertha Berlin: 19 points
