Logs five crosses, one accurate
Mbabu attempted five crosses during a 2-0 loss Saturday against Union Berlin.

Plays 23 minutes off bench
Mbabu (knee) played 23 minutes off the bench in Saturday's win against Freiburg.
Impact
Mbabu was in the side Saturday after picking up a knee issue over the break. It appears he's good to go and could be given a start Tuesday in Champions League against Lille. He started the first three matches of the season, compiling five chances created and 14 crosses.

Expected back Saturday
Mbabu (knee) is slated to return to the squad against Greuther Furth on Saturday. Manager Mark van Bommel told reporters, "Kevin Mbabu is having knee problems. But I think that bot...
Impact
Mbabu has registered a team-high 14 crosses (four accurate) through the opening three games of the season and should continue to push the attack from the backline if cleared to start versus Furth. Sebastiaan Bornauw could be an option for the starting XI if Mbabu is unable to play.

Suffers knee injury
Mbabu sustained a left knee injury against RB Leipzig on Sunday that will prevent him from joining Switzerland during the international break.
Impact
Based on the team's announcement, Mbabu may not miss any time for the club, though fantasy player will want to monitor the situation ahead of a clash with Greuther Furth on Sept. 11. The right-back has logged the full 90 minutes in all three matches this season in which he recorded 14 crosses (four accurate), right clearances and five chances created.

Records assist in win
Mbabu assisted a goal and made an interception in Monday's 3-3 (5-4 after penalties) victory against France. He also won one of three tackles in the match.
Impact
Mbabu was a second-half substitute on Monday, and he set up Haris Seferovic's second goal, which gave his side new life after suffering through a poor 20 minutes against France. Switzerland got the better of their opponents in the penalty shootout and they advance to the quarterfinals, where a clash against Spain awaits.

Solid during opening match
Mbabu took two shots (none on target), made three tackles (won three), and created two scoring chances during Saturday's 1-1 draw against Wales.
Impact
Mbabu contributed in multiple statistical category as his defensive work rate matched his ability to get forward from his right wing back position. He's not as big of a household name as other outside defenders, but his stats in the first match could warrant consideration against Italy on Wednesday.

One option to start
Mbabu started during Thursday's pre-Euro friendly for Switzerland against Liechenstein.
Impact
Mbabu only started in one of the two games before the tournament but still has a good chance to start on the right-wing. A late-season surge saw him log 11 crosses, 11 tackles and create three chances in the last three games for Wolfsburg, so he should be riding a nice run of form into the Euros.
