Koen Casteels - Three saves for draw Casteels made three saves during Wednesday's one-all draw against Sevilla.

Impact Casteels faced four shots from Sevilla and wasn't beaten until near stoppage time when Ivan Rakitic converted from the penalty spot. It's been a rough run of games for Casteels who struggled throughout September, he will hope to return to his early season form Saturday, against Monchengladbach.

Wout Weghorst - Three shots in draw Weghorst shot three times (once on goal) during Wednesday's one-all draw with Sevilla.

Impact Weghorst wasn't his usual clinical self, failing to get on the scoresheet, and wasting a couple chances. Weghorst remains a high-ceiling, low-floor option heading into a Saturday clash with Monchengladbach, where he will look to snap a two-game scoreless streak.

Renato Steffen - Opens UCL account Steffen scored once on three shots (one on goal) during Wednesday's one-all draw with Sevilla.

Impact Steffen scored his first career Champions League goal Wednesday, in what was far and away his most complete performance of the season. Steffen has struggled for impact of late, but he came alive against Wolfsburg, turning limited service into three shots and a goal. Next up for the midfielder is a Saturday clash with Monchengladbach.

William - Begins individual training William (knee) was on the pitch for some individual work Wednesday.

Impact William suffered a torn ACL last May meaning he should still be expected to remain on the shelf until closer to the 6-9 month mark. As such, fantasy players shouldn't be anticipating him back in the match-day squad until 2022, though a spot in the starting XI wouldn't be out of the question once cleared to play.

Bartosz Bialek - On training pitch Wednesday Bialek (knee) completed individual training work Wednesday.

Impact Bialek continues to recover from knee surgery back in April but has progressed to the next stage. Still, the forward should be considered out indefinitely until he is able to join first-team training sessions. Even once cleared to play, Bialek's lengthy layoff will likely mean a few substitute appearances before getting a crack at the starting XI.

Maximilian Arnold - Main creator for Wolfsburg Arnold took one shot (on goal), crossed nine times (two accurate) and created four chances during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Frankfurt.

Impact Arnold was held off the scoresheet despite being the main creator for Wolfsburg on Sunday. The midfielder took just one shot but led Wolfsburg in both crosses and chances created in the draw.

Wout Weghorst - Equalizes for Wolfsburg Weghorst scored a goal while taking four shots during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Frankfurt.

Impact Weghorst found the back of the net in the 70th minute, equalizing to earn a point for Wolfsburg. The goal was the third of the season for the forward while his four shots led Wolfsburg in the draw.

Koen Casteels - One save in draw Casteels allowed a goal while making a save during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Frankfurt.

Paulo Otavio - Training back home Otavio (knee) is in his native Brazil as he works his way back from injury. Manager Mark van Bommel told reporters, "Paulo works hard in Brazil."

Impact The fact that Otavio is back home as part of his recovery means fantasy players should consider him sidelined indefinitely. The defender has yet to get onto the pitch this season and appears to be no closer to getting back into action any time soon.

Josuha Guilavogui - Blocks two shots Guilavogui recorded two blocks during a 0-0 draw Tuesday at Lille.

Impact Guilavogui recorded more blocks than those from any other Wolfsburg footballer. Though unlikely to regularly block multiple shots, blocking them is one reasonable way he could supply value in place of injured defensive midfielder Xaver Schlager (knee).

SEPTEMBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Koen Casteels - Another four-save clean sheet Casteels recorded four saves and the clean sheet during a 0-0 draw Tuesday at Lille.

Impact Casteels has been one of Europe's best goalkeepers since the continent commenced its 2021-22 soccer season. He recorded four clean sheets and a 93.8 save percentage across his last five appearances (four Bundesliga and one Champions League).
