Out Sunday
Busch (undisclosed) is out for Sunday's match against Koln.
Analysis: Busch was unlikely to play Sunday after suffering a knock, and that has come to fruition, as the defender is still absent. This leaves the club without their starting right-back, forcing Omar Traore into the starting XI. He will now hope to return for the season finale, facing Mainz on May 16.
Doubtful due to knock
Busch (undisclosed) is doubt for Sunday's clash against Koln after picking up a knock in training, according to coach Frank Schmidt. "Buschi received a knock, we have to see."
Analysis: Busch's status will be determined over the coming days before a final call is made on his involvement in what is a crucial survival battle fixture for Heidenheim. Omar Traore or Leonidas Stergiou are the most likely candidates to step in at right-back if Busch cannot be cleared in time for Sunday's showdown.
Pair of assists Saturday
Busch assisted twice to go with one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-3 draw versus Bayern Munich. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 90th minute.
Analysis: Busch provided a pair of assists and created a pair of chances during Saturday's draw. It was perhaps the best performance of the season for the defender, who got forward throughout and was lethal with the final ball. Busch was a shining star in the most difficult match during the Bundesliga run in.
Six crosses Sunday
Busch registered one shot (zero on goal) and six crosses (zero accurate) in Sunday's 2-1 loss to SC Freiburg.
Analysis: Busch recorded six crosses Sunday -- his second most in a match this season -- though he failed to record an accurate cross or a chance created in the loss. He was fairly active on the defensive side too, recording two interceptions, one tackle, one clearance and one blocked shot across his full 90 minutes of action.
