But look at Bayern Munich at the moment, they have 10 injured players, their starting line-up and substitutes always have to be filled with someone from the youth. Players like Upamecano, Mazraoui, Sarr, Kimmich, Laimer, Coman and Gnabry are very good players, if they dont play then Bayern Munich is not so strong. This gives Leverkusen an advantage, they dont have so many injured players. Munich have a harder game this weekend, they play against Gladbach, Leverkusen play against Darmstadt. The following week is the deciding game, on February 10: Leverkusen vs Bayern.

10 injured players is not good news for them. The match against Gladbach may not be difficult enough but the match on February 10 is truly an important match and they must win that match to maintain any chance of winning the title at the end of the season. Because if Leverkusen wins then they will have a difference of 5 points and that is not good for Munich. I think Leverkusen will have an advantage because they won't have the pressure like Munich. But I predict the match will end in a draw if you look at the current performance of the two teams.

Having that many injured players definitely will cause a lot of trouble for you if you are not careful. There must be something wrong with the team, either with training, or just overloading the same players, because at the moment that number is not normal. Of course every team has issues, time to time every team has players missing, but if you have that many players missing then there must be something wrong with it, and that is the issue that they are facing right now.

I think it's quite clear that we are talking about something that may not be all that easy to handle, and we should be considering the situation as problem within the teams system. In any case, even with this type of injury numbers, they are doing fine and chasing Leverkusen closely.
