The Red Devils return home Saturday night to Fritz Walter Stadium to take on Hertha BSC Berlin.
Following two road victories, one in cup play and the other in league action, FCK is looking for the first win at home.
In their first home outing, the Red Devils tied Fürth 2-2, which leaves team and fans hoping for three points against the former Bundesliga squad.
Kaiserslautern is in fifth place going into the weekend, tied with four other teams with seven points. Hertha comes to town with four points, coming off their first win of the young season against Regensburg last week.
Rumors are swirling that FCK’s top scorer, Ragnar Ache, will be leaving the club for a Bundesliga side before the summer transfer period ends tonight.
Fritz Walter Stadium is nearly sold out, with tickets only high up in block 21.4 at the east end.
Action gets underway at 8:30 p.m. on the Betzenberg.
