Milner (hamstring) is still a few weeks away from returning as he taking his injury day by day. "James [Milner] had a scan, it was not a big issue, but with him you have to go day-by-day. We have to see, it's an issue where you can't approximate his return, it could be a week, it could be more" per manager Fabian Hurzeler.
ANALYSIS
James Milner is still recovering from a hamstring injury sustained before the international break against Arsenal. Though not given an exact timeline, he will aim for a return before the end of the month, at minimum. In his absence, Yasin Ayarl is likely to start in defensive midfield alongside Carlos Baleba for the time being.
