Bayern needing 'wake-up call' after run of slow starts Bayern Munich has conceded the opening goal in each of its last eight Bundesliga games before coming back to win or draw every time
Assist in UCL Costa provided one assist, as well as creating three chances during Wednesday 2-0 win over Lokomotiv Moscow.
Impact Costa has been a bench option due to Munich's incredible depth, but he was a shining light Wednesday. The winger was unplayable, and could have had far more than his single assist. Costa is unlikely to start but he should get some time off the bench against Union Berlin on Saturday.

Launches six crosses Costa recorded six crosses (zero accurate), one tackle (won) and three corners against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday.
Impact Costa led the way in crosses and took three of the team's four corners. It was just the third start of the season for Costa who has served primarily as a bench option this season. With Manager Hansi Flick resting many of his star players Tuesday, it allowed Costa to not only rejoin the starting XI but serve as the No. 1 option for freekicks. If the same roster management decisions are made versus Lokomotiv Moscow on Wednesday, Costa could be a solid fantasy option.

Scores as substitute Douglas Costa scored one goal from his only shot, sent in one inaccurate cross and made one interception in 21 minutes during Saturday's 3-1 win at Sttutgart.
Impact Douglas Costa subbed on for Kingsley Coman in the 69th minute and scored their third goal in the 87th to seal the road win -- his first of the season, to go with one assist. The Brazilian started just twice until now, and will likely come off the bench again at Atletico Madrid on Tuesday.

Suffers thigh injury Costa has picked up a grade two strain of the adductor longus in the right thigh and will be re-evaluated in 15 days, Juventus announced.
Impact Costa has been used sparingly in the last few matches but still got hurt. The injury rules him out for the final three Serie A games and likely for Champions League as well, although he will be re-evaluated before August 7th's game against Lyon. Federico Bernardeschi will remain the top choice as right winger, with Juan Cuadrado as the alternative. Juventus will also have the option of putting Paulo Dybala there and deploying Gonzalo Higuain.

Timid in start versus Udinese Costa took one shot on target, created two scoring chances and had two successful take-ons in Monday's 2-1 win over Udinese.
Impact Costa has had some success as a sub lately but did not capitalize on a rare start here. He has notched one goal and four assists in the season. He will likely head back to the bench with Federico Bernardeschi coming back from suspension in Thursday's road game versus Udinese.

Clears suspension Bernardeschi will be available for Thursday's game against Udinese having served the suspension versus Lazio.
Impact Bernardeschi has very good chances to make the XI, as he has done in all the matches after the resumption, since Douglas Costa did not shine when he got the opportunity to play more minutes.
