Bayer Leverkusen head coach Sami Hyypia has been able to name Emre Can in a more familiar attacking midfield role for Saturday evening's home clash against Schalke 04.

Sebastian Boenisch plays at left-back, with a solid midfield three of Simon Rolfes, Lars Bender and Gonzalo Castro supporting from midfield, although there is no Sidney Sam against his future club.

For Schalke, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar continues up front, with Jefferson Farfan providing the pace from the right flank alongside Kevin-Prince Boateng in attacking midfield.

Bayer: Leno; Hilbert, Spahic, Wollscheid, Boenisch; Castro, Rolfes, Bender; Can, Kiessling, Son

Schalke: Fahrmann; Hoogland, Matip, Santana, Kolasinac; Goretzka, Neustadter; Farfan, Meyer, Boateng; Huntelaar
