Germany, who beat Kazakhstan in Astana 3-0 on Friday, will be without suspended Bastian Schweinsteiger and injured Julian Draxler when the two sides meet again in Nuremberg.

Coach Joachim Loew had already seen several other players miss out through injury including Toni Kroos, Mats Hummels and Miroslav Klose.

Hamburg SV's Jansen, who has won 36 caps, last played in September 2010 while Borussia Moenchengladbach winger Herrmann, who was on duty with the Under-21 team, has yet to make his senior debut.
