Kosta Nedeljkovic - Suffering from back problems Nedeljkovic is out for Sunday's match against Hamburger due to a back injury, according to his club.

Impact Nedeljkovic is going to miss out on action for the time being, with the defender being the victim of a back injury. Unfortunately, this will leave the club without some depth for another match, already missing three games due to the injury. He is more of a depth option, so this is not a major loss.

Xaver Schlager - Running again Schalger (groin) is back in training, running again, according to his club.

Impact Schlager is back in training this week but is still out for a few more games, with the midfielder only able to run. This will likely leave him questionable for the March 7 match against Augsburg, more than likely to be an option against Stuttgart on March 15 if he can train fully. This is still a rough loss after he was a regular starter for much of the season, with Tidiam Gomis or Ezechiel Banzuzi as potential replacements in the midfield.

Xaver Schlager - Set to miss few weeks Schlager (adductor) is set to miss several weeks due to injury, the club announced.

Impact Schlager was forced off in the 65th minute of Saturday's draw against Dortmund after suffering an adductor injury that will keep him sidelined for several weeks. It's a major setback for Leipzig, as he has been a locked-in starter in the engine room and one of the team's most reliable midfield anchors. His absence will trigger a shake-up in the starting XI, with Brajan Gruda in line for an expanded role and Nicolas Seiwald expected to slide back into the midfield.

Maarten Vandevoordt - Two conceded in relief Vandevoordt had one save and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Wolfsburg.

Impact Vandevoordt came on for the final hour of Sunday's clash after Peter Gulacsi came off injured in the 30th minute. Vandevoordt didn't cover himself in glory in that time, he faced only three shots and conceded two of them, leading to a disappointing draw. Vandevoordt will hope to do better if he's handed a run in the starting XI, with some grace being given for an awkward match coming off the bench.

Yan Diomande - Nets against Wolfsburg Diomande scored one goal to go with three shots (three on goal), six crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Wolfsburg.

Impact Diomande scored once in an excellent showing Sunday. He took six crosses and created a pair of chances and came so close to breaking the deadlock in a variety of ways. Diomande has been a true breakout star this season and he's showing no signs of slowing down in the back half of the season. Rumors are already swirling about a potential move elsewhere in the summer for the talented winger.

Brajan Gruda - Goal, assist in draw Gruda scored one goal and assisted once from five shots and five chances created in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Wolfsburg.

Impact Gruda scored and assisted Sunday, doing everything to earn the point in a match that Leipzig really should have won. The attacking midfielder already matched his goal contribution total in the Premier League in just his second match back in the Bundesliga. Whether that's related to the system he's playing in or the level of the league, it's a nice sign for Gruda and Leipzig.

FEBRUARY 16 • ROTOWIRE

Peter Gulacsi - Suffers partially torn MCL Gulacsi is expected to be out until the end of March due to a partially torn MCL, according to his club.

Impact Gulacsi had to be taken off the field Sunday, and his testing has revealed a not-so-good outcome, as he has suffered a partially torn MCL. That said, the goalie will miss out until close to the end of March, with the club ready to take his return cautiously if needed. They will now be without their starter for a decent stretch, with Maarten Vandevoordt likely to take his spot after serving in his place Sunday.

David Raum - Ends ban Raum is no longer suspended and is an option for the club moving forward.

Impact Raum is eligible to play once again after his time on the sidelines, with the defender no longer banned. He had yet to miss a start all season until the suspension and should return to the starting XI, recording three goals and four assists this season.

Peter Gulacsi - Off during first half Gulacsi was forced off the field in the 28th minute of Sunday's 2-2 draw against Wolfsburg due to an injury.

Impact Gulacsi had to be changed out in the first half Sunday, with the goalie making way for Maarten Vandevoordt after an injury. This is major news for the camp, as the long-time starter should be set to miss time depending on the results of his testing. Vandevoordt would start in net if Gulacsi misses time, taking the field next against Dortmund on Saturday.

Castello Lukeba - Plays in cup game Lukeba (knee) started and recorded four clearances, three interceptions and two tackles (one won) during Wednesday's Pokal loss to Bayern Munich.

Impact Lukeba bounced back following a four-game absence and should now be in contention to start in Bundesliga play. He was very active as a center-back before suffering the injury, so he could be chosen over El Chadaille Bitshiabu, allowing Nicolas Seiwald to return to midfield in upcoming fixtures.

Castello Lukeba - Trains with team, late call in Cup Lukeba (knee) resumed team training on Monday and is a late call for Wednesday's DFB Pokal game against Bayern, the club announced.

Impact Lukeba is pushing toward a return from a knee injury that kept him out for the last four matches after rejoining full team training on Monday, making him a late fitness decision for Wednesday's DFB Pokal clash against Bayern. That is an encouraging development for Leipzig, as the French center-back has been a locked-in starter at the back and his availability would give the defense a noticeable lift. In his absence, El Chadaille Bitshiabu and more recently Nicolas Seiwald have stepped in alongside Willi Orban to cover his spot.
