Set to return Friday Sabitzer (calf) will return Friday against Wolfsburg, according to manager Julian Nagelsmann.
Impact Sabitzer will return Friday, though it might just be a role off the bench. The midfielder could be a crucial piece of the puzzle, though he won't be rushed back with the winter break right around the corner.

Out a few weeks with calf injury Bayern manager Julian Nagelsmann confirmed Friday that Sabitzer will miss a few more weeks with his calf injury.
Impact Sabitzer missed Tuesday's Champions League victory against Dynamo Kyiv with his injury, and it's possible that he isn't able to play again until the new year according to Nagelsmann. He has started just three games in all competitions so far for Bayern, but the German club will miss his backup capacity in midfield as Joshua Kimmich (illness) is out as well.

Lewandowski scores as depleted Bayern beats Dynamo Kyiv
Robert Lewandowski scored with an overhead kick to lift a depleted Bayern Munich team to a 2-1 win over Dynamo Kyiv that clinched first place in its Champions League groupNOVEMBER 23, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Ruled out for UCL matchup Sabitzer (calf) will not be available against Dynamo Kyiv on Tuesday.
Impact Sabitzer has started just three of his 14 appearances for the club this season, so his absence from the starting XI shouldn't come as a surprise. Still, the Joshua Kimmich (not injury related), the club certainly could have used Sabitzer for Tuesday's clash.
NOVEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Doubt for Tuesday Sabitzer is considered a doubt for Tuesday's trip to Dynamo Kiev because of an Achilles and calf issue, according to manager Julien Nagelsmann.
Impact Sabitzer started last Friday but only made it 52 minutes because of his injuries. On a short week, it's hard to see him starting Tuesday, especially with a couple knocks. The good news is that the injuries aren't serious and he's still traveling to Kiev.

Another goal from Robert Lewandowski wasn’t enough this timeNOVEMBER 19, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
In action against Augsburg Sabitzer (undisclosed) will start versus FC Augsburg on Friday.
Impact Sabitzer will be making just his third start of the season for Bayern, though he has made a total of 11 appearances for the club across all competitions. With Sabitzer getting the nod over Joshua Kimmich, it could see Thomas Muller and Leroy Sane splitting the corner-taking duties, though Sabitzer could also be in the mix as well considering he previously did so while with RB Leipzig.

Unavailable Saturday Sabitzer (undisclosed) will be unavailable for Saturday's clash with Freiburg, according to manager Julian Nagelsmann.
Impact Sabitzer will be unavailable Saturday with an undisclosed injury. While it's not clear what happened to the defensive midfielder it's a good time to pick up an issue. With the international break right around the corner Sabitzer should have a full two weeks to return to fitness.

Enters win off bench Sabitzer logged eight minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 3-0 win over Barcelona in the UCL.
Impact Sabitzer has come off the bench in his first two appearances since joining Bayern as he works his way back from a groin issue. There's enough competition for places that he'll seldom be guaranteed a starting spot, but it's likely that Sabitzer will get a chance or two once he's able to play more than a few minutes each game.

Impact If Sabitzer plays Saturday, he would be making his first appearance for Bayern Munich in a clash with his former club. Even once cleared to play, Sabitzer is far from a lock for the starting XI, though the upcoming Champions League clash with Barcelona on Tuesday could see coach Julian Nagelsmann stretching the depth of the club.

Begins individual pitch work Sabitzer (groin) took part in individual training drills Friday as part of his recovery.
Impact Sabitzer -- who just joined Bayern in the closing days of the transfer window -- will need to participate in at least one team training session before he can debut for his new club. While the international break should give the midfielder some extra recovery time, he is likely a long shot to crack the starting XI versus RB Leipzig on Sept. 11. Even once fully fit, Bayern's midfield depth could make it difficult for Sabitzer to get onto the pitch with any consistency.

Moves to Bayern Munich Sabitzer (groin) completed a move to Bayern Munich from RB Leipzig on Monday. In addition, Sabitzer signed a contract with the club through 2025.
Impact Sabitzer had yet to feature in the starting XI for RB Leipzig this season, instead coming off the bench in the first two games before picking up his groin injury. Considering Bayern still moved forward with the transfer, Sabitzer's groin problem shouldn't be expected to sideline him long term. The midfielder may not be able to break into the starting XI any easier for Bayern Munich but will no doubt have plenty of opportunities given the club's busy schedule including the DFL-Pokal and Champions League.
