According to a report from Bild (as captured by @iMiaSanMia), it could be difficult for Bayern Munich goalkeeper Jonas Urbig to get into a game before he is slated to play in the next DFB-Pokal match:
Should his recovery proceed without complications, Jonas Urbig is expected to be available for the DFB Pokal second round game against his former club Köln (Manuel Neuer is suspended for that game). There was also an internal discussion that Urbig would get one of the upcoming games (Werder Bremen, Pafos), but that will not happen anymore following his injury.
That is surely disappointing for Urbig, who was only slated to play a handful of games this season. Going into the DFB-Pokal match vs. FC Köln after a two-month break from game action could be difficult.
Bayern Munich will host Werder Bremen in a Bundesliga match that — on paper — looks a little lopsided.
Okay, a lot lopsided.
The Bavarians are scorching hot and Werder Bremen has a slew of injuries, which makes for what could be a very tough challenge against a Bayern Munich team than can just wear down the opposition.
Let’s get into it — this is what we have on tap for this edition of the Bavarian Podcast Works — Preview Show:
