Considered questionable Sosa is listed as questionable for Saturday's match at Bayer Leverkusen after not training Thursday, according to coach Michael Wimmer.

Impact Sosa has recorded five assists in his last seven appearances including in each of the last three games. Injury absences in the back line could see Hiroki Ito move to the left flank while Dan-Axel Zagadou and Waldemar Anton fill out the defense, but all of this is dependent on Sosa's status.

NOVEMBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Assists yet again Sosa assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal), 16 crosses (six accurate), and seven corners in Tuesday's 2-1 victory over Hertha BSC Berlin.

Impact Sosa provided his third assist in as many games as he returned to the starting XI and showed some exceptional form. The left-back has finally found his footing after an awful tart to the season and is now on pace to blow past the eight assists he managed last time out. Sosa has provided four assists in his last five matches while creating 16 chances in that time.

Impact Sosa had another spectacular effort from the left flank, assisting Sehrou Guirassy for his side's first goal in the 15th minute and then put up season highs in both chances created and crosses.
