Malik Tillman Injury: Unlikely vs. Bayern, likely Benfica

Tillman (hamstring) is expected to return next week and is more likely to make his comeback for the Champions League clash against Benfica, coach Kasper Hjulmand said in a press conference, according to Werkself Xtra. "Malik [Tillman] will return next week. Maybe too late for the Bayern game, but we think Benfica could be possible."

Tillman is unlikely to feature in Saturday's clash against Bayern since the game is coming too early for him, but the midfielder could be in contention to play against Benfica next Wednesday in the Champions League. This is great news for the Werkself, as the American started all of his appearances this season across all competitions and will likely reclaim that role once fully fit.
