Finn Jeltsch Injury: Aims return against Leverkusen

Jeltsch (thigh) is aiming a return for Saturday's clash against Leverkusen, he said to the media, according to the Stuttgarter Nachrichten. "I didn't play the friendly as a precaution, I want to be there against Leverkusen."

Jeltsch was forced off at halftime in the last Bundesliga game of the year against Hoffenheim due to a thigh injury that he almost fully cleared since he is aiming a return for Saturday's clash against the Werkself. That said, he could train only individually on Wednesday, making his availability to start the clash on Saturday quite unlikely. Jeltsch will likely find a bench role if deemed fit enough to feature.
