Without defensive boss Willi Orban, but with playmaker Xavi Simons, RB Leipzig go into this Saturday's Bundesliga top match (18:30/Sky) at Eintracht Frankfurt. And RB interim coach Zsolt Löw announced that Dutch international Simons is in top form following his yellow card suspension. "He's in top form, has trained very well and has also made his mark against the ball in training," said Löw, who also has national team players David Raum, Assan Ouédraogo and Kevin Kampl back in the matchday squad. Antonio Nusa will have to wait for the final training session to see if he is a squad option.
Orban, who still has muscular problems, will not be able to play in the match against the third-placed team in the Bundesliga. "The cause has been found, but he will be available against Bremen at the latest," said Löw. Goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi will also not be in the squad after his heavy collision in the Kiel game. Maarten Vandevoordt will be back in goal for him. "We have zero stomach pains," Löw emphasized.
