The 29-year-old centre-back suffered a head injury in last week’s 0-0 draw with Hamburger SV.

In his absence, new signing Kota Takai is expected to make his first start alongside Philipp Sander and Nico Elvedi in defence.

Alejo Sarco will be included in the squad for the first time following his loan move from Bayer Leverkusen. The 20-year-old Argentine striker is available this weekend.
