Nothing is at stake for RB Leipzig in the Champions League against Graz. The loss of an experienced player is therefore manageable.

RB Leipzig will be without Kevin Kampl for the meaningless final game of the league phase in the Champions League. The veteran was absent from the final training session on Tuesday and, like striker André Silva, will be missing against Sturm Graz in Klagenfurt on Wednesday (21:00/DAZN). Kampl was substituted early on Saturday in the 2-2 draw against Leverkusen with calf problems.

Both teams have already been eliminated from the competition. Leipzig could still improve from 30th to 28th place, but this is ultimately only relevant for the distribution of bonuses. Graz, like Leipzig, also have just three points from seven games and are 33rd in the 36-team league.
