BayernRuled out for weeks
Davies suffered a left hamstring muscle injury during Tuesday's Champions League semifinal second leg against PSG and will be sidelined for several weeks, according to the club.
Analysis: Davies ends the season with one goal and five assists across 21 appearances (seven starts) having been managed carefully throughout a campaign disrupted by numerous physical issues. The confirmed hamstring injury rules him out of Bayern's remaining Bundesliga fixtures and brings his season to a premature end, with Tom Bischof or Hiroki Ito expected to cover at left-back in his absence. The focus now shifts entirely to his recovery ahead of the World Cup this summer, where Davies is expected to be a key figure for Canada on home soil if he can get fit in time.
Ruled out against Wolfsburg
Davies (undisclosed) is ruled out of Saturday's clash against Wolfsburg, according to coach Vincent Kompany. "Alphonso is out for this game, that's the only personnel discussion for tomorrow."
Analysis: Davies will miss Saturday's clash against Wolfsburg due to undisclosed reasons but since he has been dealing with numerous physical issues this season, the club might take no risks with the World Cup in just one month time. His absence forces a reshuffle in Bayern's defensive lineup for the penultimate Bundesliga fixture of the season, with Tom Bischof or Hiroki Ito expected to step in at left-back in his place. With the title already secured, Bayern will manage their squad carefully through the final fixtures of the campaign.
Provides one assist off bench
Davies assisted once to go with one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Wednesday's 1-1 draw versus Paris Saint-Germain.
Analysis: Davies came off the bench in the second half of Wednesday's 1-1 draw against PSG to replace Josip Stanisic as Bayern pushed for the goals they needed, and made an instant impact by setting up a chance for Luis Diaz before delivering the decisive pass to Harry Kane in stoppage time for his side's consolation goal. The Canadian left-back was aggressive on the ball and drove forward with intent after coming on, immediately stretching the PSG right side, while adding two key passes and one tackle. Davies has delivered two assists across eight Champions League appearances this season.
Assists on lone chance
Davies assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Saturday's 3-3 draw against FC Heidenheim.
Analysis: Davies created one chance during Saturday's draw, but that was all he needed. He turned that chance into an assist, a nice return with limited action Saturday. The full-back is still a brilliant attacking option though he hasn't been as involved this season as he has been in the past. He still offers strong upside when he's on the pitch.
Assists Sunday
Davies scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 4-2 win over VfB Stuttgart.
Analysis: Davies earned his first leage start since Feb 21, playing 62 minutes while also recording and assist during the win Sunday, earning another Bundesliga title to his resume. It has been a tough season for the Canadian, dealing with long term injuries to see him appear just 11 times in league play this season, starting just five times with a goal and two assists.
