Short-term decision for Union coach Svensson

Bundesliga club Union Berlin are still hoping to have coach Bo Svensson on the sidelines ahead of the game at RB Leipzig today (3.30pm/Sky). The Dane, who has been suffering from an infection since Wednesday evening, was unable to prepare the Berliners for the game. Union announced this morning that a decision would be made at short notice.

While the 45-year-old's involvement on the sidelines remains open, RB coach Marco Rose is definitely absent. The 48-year-old former teammate of Svensson at FSV Mainz 05 was sent to the stands with a yellow card in Leipzig's 3-2 win at champions Bayer Leverkusen and is suspended.
