Anton Kade - Scores consolation goal in loss Kade scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 5-2 loss versus VfB Stuttgart.

Impact Kade's second half strike from close range proved inconsequential Sunday as FC Augsburg were handedly defeated by VfB Stuttgart in a 5-2 loss. The forward also contributed two interceptions to the defensive effort after entering the fixture to begin the second half. Across FC Augsburg's last 10 matches, Kade has made nine appearances (two starts) and created four chances.

Impact Ogundu has shaken off his ankle issue and is back in the mix for Sunday's showdown against Stuttgart, giving Augsburg a much-needed boost up top. The forward has mostly been limited to a bench role since arriving at his new club, and he'll now look to make an impact as a second-half option with his availability restored.

Jeffrey Gouweleeuw - Option against Stuttgart Gouweleeuw (knee) is back available for Sunday's clash against Stuttgart, according to coach Manuel Baum. "Matsima and Keitel will continue to be sidelined, but the rest of the squ...

Impact Gouweleeuw has shaken off his knee injury and is back in the mix for Sunday's showdown against Stuttgart, giving Augsburg a timely boost at the back. The center-back has been back in full training for several weeks and is now set to return after being sidelined since late September. That said, he'll likely need a few matches to get back up to speed before regaining the undisputed starting role he previously owned in Augsburg's back line.

MARCH 20 • ROTOWIRE

Jeffrey Gouweleeuw - Could be back Sunday Gouweleeuw (knee) is expected to train this week and be back available for Saturday's clash against Stuttgart, according to Marco Scheinhof from Augsburger Allgemeine.

Impact Gouweleeuw has been sidelined since late September with an MCL injury and saw an early November comeback attempt fall through, but he is now trending in the right direction and is expected to return to full team training this week with a chance to start in Saturday's matchup against Stuttgart. His potential return would be a major lift for Augsburg, as he is a locked-in starter in the back line when fully fit and brings stability to the defense. Until he is back at full speed, Keven Schlotterbeck, Noahkai Banks or Cedric Zesiger should continue seeing increased minutes at the back.

Fabian Rieder - Makes two tackles Rieder took one shot (on target), crossed once inaccurately, created a chance and made two tackles (winning both) during Saturday's 2-0 loss to Dortmund.

Impact Rieder finished with the second most shots, crosses and chances created on the team while leading Augsburg in tackles. The midfielder has combined for an assist, nine chances created and 12 crosses over his last three appearances.

Finn Dahmen - Concedes in each half Dahmen allowed two goals while making three saves during Saturday's 2-0 loss to Dortmund.

Impact Dahmen allowed a goal in each half as Augsburg dropped all three points Saturday. The keeper has allowed four goals while combining for 13 saves and keeping a clean sheet over his last three starts. Dahmen and company take on Stuttgart next Sunday.

Noahkai Banks - Finds bench role Banks (ankle) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Dortmund.

Impact Banks is named on the bench for Saturday's clash against Dortmund while dealing with ankle issues that have bothered him over the past few weeks. The defender dialed back his workload in training and did not take part in team sessions earlier in the week which likely limited his role for the match. Arthur Chaves instead takes the opportunity to feature in the starting back-three.

Noahkai Banks - Back in training Banks (ankle) has continued to progress in his recovery, with coach Manuel Baum mentioning him Friday ahead of the weekend match versus Dortmund "Noki Banks is only expected to com...

Impact Banks may have to wait until the March 22 game against Stuttgart to return to the pitch after struggling with an ankle problem. The defender has been a regular starter this season, scoring one goal and one assists while averaging 4.1 clearances per contest across 21 Bundesliga appearances. The no longer suspended Cedric Zesiger should move into the starting lineup to cover Banks' place in the next match.

Impact Gouweleeuw has returned to training but is still not fully fit for Saturday's clash against Dortmund and is expected to return soon. The defender has played only 28 minutes since late September and will likely be eased back into competition cautiously as he works to regain match rhythm.

Alexis Claude-Maurice - Available moving forward Claude-Maurice missed the last game against Leipzig due to personal issues but was back in team training Tuesday and is therefore back available moving forward, the club posted.

Impact Claude-Maurice sat out Saturday's clash against Leipzig due to personal reasons, but the attacking midfielder returned to full training Tuesday and is back in the mix moving forward for Augsburg. That's a big boost for the squad since he's usually a regular starter up front when fit and available. Expect him to regain that role again in the upcoming fixtures.

Noahkai Banks - Doubtful against Dortmund Banks is dealing with ankle issues since last week and is a doubt for Saturday's clash against Dortmund, according to coach Manuel Baum, per Augsburger Allgemeine. "We must be care...

Impact Banks has had to dial back his workload in training while dealing with ankle issues that have been bothering him over the past few weeks. The defender has yet to take part in team sessions this week and could either miss additional training or return to full work depending on how the ankle responds. That said, coach Manuel Baum is usually reluctant to roll with a player who hasn't logged much training during the week, which could open the door for Arthur Chaves to step into the starting back three if Banks isn't able to go.

MARCH 11 • ROTOWIRE

Finn Dahmen - Seven saves in loss Dahmen had seven saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-1 defeat to RB Leipzig.

Impact Dahmen faced eight shots, stopped seven of them and still came away saddled with a loss. That's a frustrating day, especially when one of the goals he conceded was from his own defender. Dahmen was individually excellent though, which is a nice bit of form to build on in the coming weeks despite the loss.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Arthur Chaves - Own goal in loss Chaves recorded an own goal and one shot (zero on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus RB Leipzig.

Impact Chaves put past his own goalkeeper during Saturday's loss, an own goal that proved crucial in the one-goal loss. It was a day to forget for the defender, who did little at the other end to make up for his error. Chaves will hope to move past this and get back to his best in the future.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Fabian Rieder - Adds assist Saturday Rieder assisted once to go with nine crosses (four accurate) and seven corners in Saturday's 2-1 loss to RB Leipzig.

Impact Rieder provided one assist during Saturday's loss to Leipzig. The midfielder had plenty of volume throughout. He took seven corners and added nine crosses and could have had more assists with better finishing in the box. It's a nice performance in a tough match despite the loss.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Robin Fellhauer - Scores in loss Fellhauer scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 defeat to RB Leipzig.

Impact Fellhauer found the back of the net with his only shot during Saturday's loss. The midfielder didn't do much in the attack, but his lone shot ended in a goal. That's a nice return in a tough match, but it's unlikely that Fellhauer is going to become some sort of consistent offensive threat moving forward.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Cedric Zesiger - Clears ban Zesiger is no longer suspended and is an option moving forward for the club.

Impact Zesiger is back from his ban due to yellow card accumulation, set to continue playing unless an injury or another suspension hinders him. He started the past three games in the defense and will look for a return to that role, starting in 11 of his 18 appearances this season.

MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE

Alexis Claude-Maurice - Not available Saturday Claude-Maurice (personal) is not available for Saturday's clash against Leipzig, according to the club.

Impact Claude-Maurice is currently sidelined due to personal matters and won't be available for Saturday's showdown with Leipzig. The forward, who has been a regular starter for Augsburg this season, will aim to rejoin the matchday squad next week. In the meantime, Mert Komur is set to step into the front line Saturday and should take on a bigger role in the attack until Claude-Maurice is back in the fold.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

Kristijan Jakic - Makes starting XI Jakic (calf) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Leipzig.

Impact Jakic makes the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Leipzig after training all week despite being forced off in the last match with his recurrent calf injury. The midfielder had started the previous three matches prior to the issue and retains his place in the lineup.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

Dimitrios Giannoulis - Starting in return Giannoulis (Achilles) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Leipzig.

Impact Giannoulis starts in his return for Saturday's clash against Leipzig after returning to team training this week and being left off the injury report by coach Manuel Baum during the press conference. The defender immediately regains his place in the lineup as he is a locked-in starter when fit. His return provides a solid boost for Augsburg in the left flank role.
