Fit and available
Gimber (undisclosed) is available for Saturday's game at Bayern Munich, according to manager Frank Schmidt.
Analysis: Gimber wasn't mentioned among the players who are dealing with injuries and knocks ahead of Saturday's clash against the reigning champions, so he should be in the mix. That said, his fantasy appeal in a tough matchup is almost non-existent -- especially since Gimber's upside is tied almost exclusively to his defensive contributions. He's started in 18 of the 21 matches he's been available for, tallying 89 clearances, 35 tackles and 13 interceptions.
Remains out
Gimber (undisclosed) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against St. Pauli.
Analysis: Gimber has been unable to shake off the undisclosed injury that ruled him out of the Union Berlin fixture two weeks ago, with coach Frank Schmidt confirming his continued unavailability ahead of the weekend. The center-back has made 21 starts this season and is an important piece of the defensive setup, making his absence a concern for a side still fighting to avoid relegation in the final weeks of the Bundesliga campaign. Patrick Mainka and Tim Siersleben are expected to continue covering in central defense, with Gimber's return timeline remaining uncertain.
