Hamburger SV will have to cope without two of their most important players when they face VfB Stuttgart away on Sunday.

As HSV coach Merlin Polzin revealed ahead of the match, Luka Vušković and Albert Sambi Lokonga have been added to the list of absentees.

“Luka took a knock to the knee and will miss Sunday’s game. Sambi has thigh problems and is also unavailable,” Polzin said at a press conference on Friday.

Die Rothosen will also be without the suspended Miro Muheim, while Alexander Røssing-Lelesiit, Yussuf Poulsen and Jean-Luc Dompé are also ruled out due to injury. Meanwhile, Bakery Jatta is unlikely to return in time for the weekend.
