Jan Jakob Olschowsky - Blown away in loss Olschowsky registered seven saves and allowed five goals in Saturday's 5-2 loss against Borussia Dortmund.

Impact Olschowsky faced 12 shots and stopped seven of them in what turned into a track meet of a match. The goalkeeper simply couldn't keep up with the Dortmund attack and was absolutely blown away. Jonas Omlin is set to return to close out the Bundesliga, and should have no issues taking the starting job immediately when available.

Luca Netz - Third assist Netz assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 5-2 defeat versus Borussia Dortmund.

Impact Netz continued his mega-efficient 2022/23 with a third assist in a bench appearance Saturday.

Across his two senior seasons Netz has assisted seven times in just 22 starts for The Foals.

Marcus Thuram - On bench against Dortmund Thuram (groin) is in Gladbach's match day squad to face Borussia Dortmund on Saturday.

Nico Elvedi - Expected to return Elvedi (ankle) avoided any issues and is fully available for Saturday's clash with Dortmund, according to manager Daniel Farke.

Impact Elvedi avoided any setbacks with his recovery from an ankle injury and has no lingering issues for Saturday's clash. It's a tough match against a red-hot Dortmund attack, so Elvedi could be under pressure throughout, if deemed fit to return to the starting XI.

Marvin Friedrich - Sees rare start Friedrich got the start during Saturday's 2-0 win over Bochum, his first start after the World Cup break.

Impact Friedrich has fallen completely out of favor after the World Cup break going as an unused substitute in nine straight matches and seeing limited minutes in four matches since that point. The center-back was a nailed-on starter before publicly voicing concerns with manager Daniel Farke. This start could be the sign that things could be improving between the center-back and manager.

Hannes Wolf - Remains limited Wolf played just nine minutes off the bench during Saturday's 2-0 win over Bochum.

Impact Wolf has seen his role fall to nearly nothing in the closing stages of the Bundesliga with just 15 minutes total in each of his last four appearances. The midfielder also went unused twice in that span, as he continues to struggle for significant playing time.

Ko Itakura - Available to return at weekend Itakura will be eligible to feature in next weekend's clash against Borussia Dortmund after serving a red card suspension.

Stefan Lainer - Creates one chance Lainer recorded one shot (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 victory over Bochum.

Impact Lainer got the start for the second straight time at right-back and did well once more, earning a clean sheet and making three tackles. While he might not offer as much going forward as Luca Netz or Joe Scally, Lainer offers defensive solidity and leadership. Lainer has made just six starts and has yet to earn a goal contribution.

Nathan N`Goumou Minpole - Five shots Saturday Ngoumou registered five shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-0 win against Bochum.

Impact Ngoumou made a second-straight start and produced some strong volume shooting. The midfielder failed to get on the scoresheet but did pile on five shots, a new season-high.

Impact Neuhaus was doing everything on the right wing, piling on shots and chances created while producing volume throughout the attack. The midfielder has seen a major role in the starting XI, but has struggled for end product, with just two goal contributions. Neuhaus will hope to add to that during the final three matches of the Bundesliga.

Ramy Bensebaini - Assists in return Bensebaini assisted once to go with three shots (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 2-0 win over Bochum.

Impact Bensebaini made his way back from a hip injury that sidelined him against Stuttgart and returned with his first assist. The left-back has never been much of a provider, always scoring more than he assists, though his 0 assists through 26 starts was a concern. He finally opened his assists account as he created three chances. Bensebaini is two goal contributions away from his previous high watermark of eight in 2019/20.
