Records three tackles Davies registered one shot (on target), three tackles (three won) and two chances created in Friday's 1-1 draw versus Gladbach.

Impact Davies logged the full 90 minutes despite entering the match fresh of an ankle injury. The left-back didn't have a significant fantasy impact Friday but should continue to drive the attack from the backline and link up with Serge Gnabry on the left side of the pitch.

Impact Davies started 22 of his 23 appearances last season in which he generated one goal on four shots (three on target), two assists and 36 crosses (eight accurate). Fantasy players may want to hold off on utilizing Davies versus Gladbach given the uncertainty of how long he might be on the pitch but could consider utilizing the Canadian defender in future weeks.

Back in team training Davies (ankle) returned to team training Monday and is considered a late test for Friday's trip to Monchengladbach.

Impact This is a nice boost for Bayern, who would've been strapped for options at left-back if Davies wasn't available. While he still may not be able to start, if he can get a full week of training in, there's a real chance he'll be ready to start Friday's opener.
