RB Leipzig Team News
Tedesco expects to be working without much-coveted defender Josko Gvardiol until the start of the Bundesliga season owing to a thigh ailment for which he just underwent surgery.
Yussuf Poulsen is also on the mend after suffering a muscle injury with Denmark, and Ademola Lookman has emerged as a doubt after sustaining an ankle injury in training last week.
Tedesco will utilize his whole squad this week, but a solid starting XI should see Peter Gulacsi in goal against his former side, while Alexander Sorloth will lead the line in Poulsen’s absence.
