Trainer Edin Terzic looks to have little choice but to stick with Hitz this midweek as international club football returns. Bürki, missing from the last four fixtures after suffering a shoulder injury, only trained individually according to the German media sources. Thomas Meunier and Lukasz Piszczek also partook in lighter training modules.
Kicker reports that attacker Thorgan Hazard, who's return could also prove a big boost to the struggling Schwarzgelben, has defenitely been ruled out of the UCL match.
