First Team

Calvin Brackelmann was able to complete parts of team training on Thursday for the first time since being diagnosed with a concussion after the home game against 1. FC Union Berlin.
As a result of the injury, the 25-year-old missed the DFB-Pokal game against Sonnenhof Großaspach, as well as the Bundesliga fixtures against SC Freiburg and RB Leipzig. Brackelmann is currently in the final stages of the official Return to Sport protocol and has therefore been cleared to complete his first sessions on the pitch.
Teammate Chrislain Matsima is set for a spell on the sidelines, however, after picking up a minor adductor strain on Tuesday. The 24-year-old is currently completing an individual recovery programme.
Next home game against Mainz
FC Augsburg will be back in action after the international break with a home game against 1. FSV Mainz 05 on Sunday, 22nd November (15:30 CET).
