6 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Michael Olise - Sent off Tuesday Olise was shown two yellow cards and sent off during Tuesday's clash with Viking.

Impact Olise is now going to be suspended for one Champions League match due to the sending off. That means he will be out for a huge showdown against Arsenal next time out in the premier competition. Olise will remain available in the league, and will likely go a full 90 with no need to rest before the clash with Arsenal.

Manuel Neuer - Makes bench Tuesday Neuer (foot) is on the bench for Tuesday's match against Viking.

Impact As expected, Neuer doesn't get the start with Jonas Urbig getting the nod between the posts. Neuer is an emergency option on the bench, but since he's not 100 percent healthy, he's likely seen as the third-string goalkeeper as Sven Ulreich is also an option among the substitutes.

Jonas Urbig - Set to start against Viking Urbig is expected to start Tuesday's Champions League clash against Viking FK, with Manuel Neuer dealing with a foot issue that prevented him from training Monday, according to coa...

Impact Urbig is set to step into the starting lineup against Viking after Manuel Neuer developed foot discomfort and missed Monday's training session. The young goalkeeper has primarily served as Bayern's backup this season, with Neuer retaining the first-choice role. Tuesday's match presents Urbig with an opportunity to earn valuable Champions League playing time, although his involvement beyond this fixture will likely depend on Neuer's recovery.

Manuel Neuer - Unlikely to feature against Viking Neuer (foot) missed Monday's training session after experiencing discomfort in his foot and is unlikely to start Tuesday's Champions League clash against Viking FK, according to co...

Impact Neuer developed foot discomfort following Saturday's 2-2 draw against Augsburg and was unable to train Monday, leaving him unlikely to feature against Viking FK on Tuesday. Jonas Urbig is set to start in goal, while Neuer's inclusion in the matchday squad remains uncertain. The severity of the foot issue has yet to be determined, and it remains unclear whether the veteran goalkeeper will be able to resume training ahead of Saturday's Bundesliga clash against Leipzig.

Jamal Musiala - Remains sidelined for Viking clash Musiala remains unavailable for Tuesday's Champions League clash against Viking as he continues recovering from a torn muscle fiber in his right thigh, the club posted.

Impact Musiala has been sidelined since suffering the injury while warming up for Germany's Nations League clash against the Netherlands. The attacking midfielder has made encouraging progress in his rehabilitation, recently completing individual running sessions involving changes of direction and ball work under the supervision of Bayern Munich's fitness staff. However, he has yet to resume full team training and is not ready to return to competitive action. Musiala could still need additional time to regain full fitness, with his availability for upcoming fixtures dependent on further progress in his recovery.

Konrad Laimer - Returns to squad for UCL clash Laimer (personal) is back in Bayern Munich's matchday squad for Tuesday's Champions League clash against Viking after missing Saturday's Bundesliga matchup against Augsburg followi...

Impact Laimer's absence against Augsburg was due to personal reasons rather than a new injury, as the Austrian had recently recovered from a groin issue that kept him sidelined for 20 days. He returned to competitive action with Austria during the international break before taking time away from Bayern following the birth of his child. His return provides additional depth at full-back, where he has established himself as a regular option despite operating in midfield for his country. Laimer should now be in contention to reclaim his starting role, potentially reducing Josip Stanisic's playing time.

Alphonso Davies - Three crosses Saturday Davies had one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus FC Augsburg.

Impact Davies would once again start at left-back for Bayern, retaining the starting role through the international break. He would earn two chances created two crosses, while completing 51 passes. He looks to be back in the starting role after a few years of injuries, starting in four of their five league games to begin the campaign.

OCTOBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Joshua Kimmich - Whips in six crosses Kimmich had one shot (zero on goal), six crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 2-2 draw against FC Augsburg.

Impact Kimmich would see a decent day for Bayern as they walked away with a point, earning a shot, a chance created and six crosses Saturday. This continues his streak without a goal contribution, now up to four games. That said, he remains with no goals and two assists in five apperances (four starts).

OCTOBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Harry Kane - No goal, two assists Kane assisted twice to go with eight shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus FC Augsburg.

Impact Kane is typically known for his goal scoring but earned his goal contributions different way Saturday, as he would find Ismael Saibari in the 55th minute and Nathaniel Brown in the 80th minute for two assists. This gives the English forward his second and third assists of the season, as he also earned one just two games ago. He now has six goal contributions in his five appearances (four starts), not looking to slow down anytime soon at age 33.

OCTOBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Ismael Saibari - Nets another goal Saibari scored one goal to go with six shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus FC Augsburg.

Impact Saibari would find the back of the net for Bayern Munich on Saturday, scoring their opening goal in the 55th minute. This is the second consecutive game with a goal for the attacker, as he recorded one ahead of the international break against Union Berlin. He has had a great start to his time with Bayern, recording two goals and two assists in his five appearances (three starts) this season.

OCTOBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Manuel Neuer - Allows two against Augsburg Neuer had three saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw against FC Augsburg.

Impact Neuer was not able to keep another clean sheet for Bayern as they drew Augsburg, allowing two goals while making three saves. This ends his three-match streak of clean sheets, remaining with two in league play this season. He will now prepare to face Viking FK in UCL play on Tuesday before a return to league play against Leipzig on Oct. 17.

Konrad Laimer - Absent following birth of child Laimer (personal) has been left out of Bayern Munich's squad for Saturday's Bundesliga clash against Augsburg after becoming a father, according to the club.

Impact Laimer's absence is due to personal reasons rather than a fitness setback, as the Austrian recently returned to competitive action following a 20-day layoff caused by a groin issue. He featured off the bench during Thursday's UEFA Nations League draw against Ireland, replacing Nicolas Seiwald at the beginning of the second half. Although Laimer operates in midfield for Austria, he has established himself in a full-back role at Bayern Munich, where his tackling and playmaking contributions provide fantasy value. His absence could open the door for Josip Stanisic to see increased playing time, while Laimer should be in contention to return for the club's next fixture.

Impact Musiala is making steady progress in his rehabilitation after suffering the muscular injury while warming up for Germany's Nations League clash against the Netherlands roughly two weeks ago. The attacking midfielder resumed individual training Tuesday and has now increased his workload with more dynamic exercises, though he has yet to rejoin the group. Saturday's Bundesliga clash against Augsburg is likely to come too soon, with Musiala potentially needing another couple of weeks before returning to competitive action.

Jamal Musiala - Back training alone Musiala (thigh) is back in individual training Tuesday, Kicker reports.

Impact Musiala returned to individual training, a big step in his recovery from a torn thigh muscle. The attacking midfielder is a heavy doubt for Saturday's trip to Augsburg, but this is an important step. Musiala will likely be eased back in, with Munich heading for a packed schedule after the international break.

Michael Olise - Scores brace for France Olise scored two goals and added an assist in France's 4-1 UEFA Nations League win over Belgium on Monday.

Impact The Bayern Munich winger continues a productive run for club and country and remains an important attacking option for France. He needed a few minutes to make his presence felt in this match, entering the game in the 60th minute when France was down 1-0 and contributing to three of his country's four goals, including a brace in the 88th and 91st minutes. Olise has been shining at club level as well, as he's up to six goals and two assists in five outings between the Bundesliga and the UEFA Champions League.

Harry Kane - Scores brace vs. Croatia Kane scored two goals and added an assist in Saturday's 7-0 win over Croatia.

Impact The all-time leading scorer for England scored on both sides of halftime, breaking the deadlock with a perfect finish after an assist from Jude Bellingham and later scoring in the second half as well. Kane has four goals and an assist in three matches during the current international window.

Josip Stanisic - Back in lineup against England Stanisic (illness) is in the starting XI for Saturday's Nations League clash against England.

Impact Stanisic returns to the Croatia starting XI against England after a viral illness forced him to sit out the defeat in Spain. His absence saw Branimir Smolcic step in at right back, but the Bayern defender has recovered in time to reclaim his place. He played the whole of the opening win over Czechia and could help bring some stability to a back line that was exposed on against Spain.

Dayot Upamecano - Released from France squad Upamecano is suspended for France's match against Belgium and has been released back to his club, leaving Clairefontaine Saturday morning, according to the French National Team.

Impact Upamecano has been a fixture at center back for Bayern Munich, starting all four Bundesliga matches this season and recording one goal, eight tackles, six interceptions and 16 clearances. He is the main defensive leader for France and new coach Zinedine Zidane didn't change his role during this international window. Upamecano is now back available for his club earlier than expected and will continue to see heavy minutes alongside Jonathan Tah in central defense at club level as long as he stays healthy.
