RB Leipzig can call on captain Willi Orban against FSV Mainz 05. "Willi is fine. He trained yesterday and will train today. The light is green," said coach Marco Rose on Friday. The Saxons host Mainz on Saturday (3.30 pm/Sky) in the Bundesliga. Leipzig have failed to win their last three games against the relegation candidates, even conceding two defeats.
Orban missed Hungary's games against Turkey and Kosovo during the international break with an injury. According to a statement from the association, the defender was suffering from slight adductor problems. Orban was only fit again at the end of January after a lengthy knee injury.
Lukas Klostermann will also be an option again against Mainz. The international returned to team training after recovering from a muscle injury in his thigh. The 27-year-old, who was a starter until the injury he suffered against Mönchengladbach in mid-February, is unlikely to return to the starting eleven.
