RB Leipzig will be without their captain for their next two Bundesliga games.

Willian Orban was sent off by referee Benjamin Brand for a late tackle on Myron Boadu in last week's 1-0 win over VfL Bochum.

As a result, the centre-back will be suspended for the next two Bundesliga matches, the German Football Association announced on Tuesday.

This means that Orban will be unavailable for Leipzig's matches against Bayer Leverkusen and Union Berlin.
