Kevin Akpoguma is still nursing an hamstring injury which will make the defender miss Hoffenheim’s Bundesliga clash with Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena on Saturday.
At the pre-match press conference, TSG boss, Sebastian Hoeness said: “Kevin Akpoguma is still injured and will surely miss out but should return to training next week.”
Hoffenheim’s injury list was lengthy last weekend with Akpoguma and seven other team-mates missing against Cologne in Sunday’s Bundesliga tie held at the Prezero Arena.
Meanwhile, Hoffenheim have won their last two games 3-0 and will face Bayern with great confidence after thrashed the Bavarians 4-1 in the reverse fixture in September.
