André Schürrle will return to the squad for the 149. local derby. It will be too soon for Raphael Guerreiro unfortunately – and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will get all the time in the world he needs.

After his calf muscle was put to work way more than was necessary in the match against Ingolstadt, the Gabon player was missing for the Cup match against Union Berlin and was still missing from training today. Normally this is a K.O. criteria when it comes to being selected on match day. Thomas Tuchel said: "maybe we will make an exception and we will test it tomorrow. The calf is swollen, the injury is affecting him and is painful, but you can play with that without it getting any worse."

The situation with Raphael Guerreiro is different. He tore a ligament in the groin area during the international break. Tuchel added: "we have to take care about this and be responsible in the way we handle this situation." (br)
