Ismail Jakobs - Suspended Saturday Jakobs will not be eligible to play against Schalke on Saturday after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season.

Impact With his suspension, Jakobs will see his season come to a close having appeared in 23 contests (18 starts) in which he registered one goal on 22 shots (six on target), 77 crosses (11 accurate) and one assist. The midfielder should continue to offer solid fantasy value next season as he pushes the attack and racks up plenty of crosses along the way.

Ismail Jakobs - Sends in seven crosses in draw Jakobs had a shot on goal, created four chances, sent in seven crosses (two accurate), made two tackles (one won), helped his side to keep a clean sheet and was shown a yellow card...

Impact Jakobs was back in the starting XI after making his return from an ankle injury off the bench on the previous match.

The playmaker had five goals, one asssist, 20 shots, 11 chances created and 37 crosses over his last eight starts and will need to be at his best next Saturday, when his side will try to avoid relegation against Schalke.

It has been a tough season for the goalkeeper as he conceded 59 goals, second most in the league, over 33 matches, but he'll have a great opportunity to redeem himself next Saturday as Koln will try to avoid relegation against last-placed Schalke.
