Union Berlin coach Bo Svensson could be missing from the bench for the Köpenicker's game at RB Leipzig due to an infection. "He was still on the pitch yesterday. He then caught it overnight," said his assistant coach Babak Keyhanfar at the press conference ahead of the game in Leipzig on Saturday (3.30pm/Sky). "We all hope he'll be back by Saturday. But until then, we'll do our best to prepare the team well for the game." Keyhanfar and the Dane have been working together for seven years.
This means that neither head coach will be on the touchline for the clash. Leipzig's Marco Rose was shown a yellow card in the 3-2 win in the top match at Bayer Leverkusen and will only be able to watch the game against Union from the stands.
