Set to return against Frankfurt

Poulsen (thigh) returned to full training and is an option for Saturday's clash against Frankfurt, according to coach Merlin Polzin. "Poulsen trained fully today and is an option for the squad."

Analysis: Poulsen's return to full training is an encouraging development after more than a month on the sidelines with muscle issues. The veteran had been operating in a rotational capacity before the injury, and a return to that role appears the most likely scenario should he be included in the matchday squad Saturday.

Trains with teammates

Puolsen (thigh) has joined team training, according to Lukas Dombrowski of Bild.de.

Analysis: Poulsen has not played in over a month due to some muscle issues, but is finally starting to see some further progress in his return, joining team training after training individually two weeks ago. This leaves him as a late call heading into their upcoming match against Frankfurt on Saturday. His return would likely only give them more depth, although he is a solid veteran presence to have around the club.
