The Austrian champions only made two changes from last week’s 5-0 defeat at Atalanta. Geyrhofer replaced Aiwu to partner Wüthrich at the heart of the defense, while Jatta took the place of Camara up front.
Leipzig’s big change sees Šeško dropped to the bench with the veteran striker Poulsen partnering Openda. Xavi Simons and Raum are also rested, while the young goalkeeper Vandevoordt starts his second Champions League game.

Sturm Graz: Scherpen – Wüthrich, Geyrhofer, Malic, Lavalée – Jon Gorenc Stankovic, Chukwuani, Yalcouye, Kiteishvili – Bøving, Jatta
RB Leipzig: Vandevoordt – Bitshiabu, Orban, Geertruida – Vermeeren, Seiwald, Haidara, Baumgartner, Nusa – Poulsen, Openda
