Hamburger SVOut against Freiburg
Muheim (ankle) is ruled out for Sunday's clash against Freiburg.
Analysis: Muheim has been unable to earn a place in the squad despite the encouraging signs that had emerged from his training as a late call, with the initial expectation that he would miss the rest of the season ultimately proving correct as Sunday's fixture comes too soon in his recovery. His absence is a blow for Hamburg heading into the penultimate game of what has been a crucial campaign for the Red Shorts, with Bakery Jatta set to retain the starting spot in his place. His situation will be monitored closely ahead of the final fixture of the season as the club assesses whether he can play any part before the campaign draws to a close.
Trains, late call for Sunday
Muheim (ankle) is a late call for Sunday's match against Frieburg, according to manager Merlin Polzin. "For Miro, it will still be tight with regard to the squad for Sunday; today he already participated in parts of the team training."
Analysis: Muheim was thought to be out for the rest of the season, but could now return Sunday, as the defender is a late call after training. This is huge news for the club, as he is a regular starter when fit, although they may be cautious after the injury. Even if he is an option, expect him to only earn limited time.
Syndesmosis tear ends season
Muheim (ankle) has been diagnosed with a torn anterior syndesmosis in his right ankle following an injury sustained during Saturday's clash against Bremen and is set to miss the remainder of the season, according to the club.
Analysis: Muheim picked up the injury in a duel with Leonardo Bittencourt and thorough examinations confirmed the worst, ruling out one of Hamburg's most important players for the final stretch of their Bundesliga campaign. The Swiss international had been an undisputed starter this season, logging 27 starts across 28 Bundesliga appearances and contributing four assists, 41 chances created, 52 corners and 62 tackles before his season was cut short. Bakery Jatta is expected to step into his spot as Hamburg push through the final games of what has been a crucial campaign for the Red Shorts.
