Luiz Gustavo doubtful for Hannover, Man United clash


Wolfsburg could be without Luiz Gustavo for their
upcoming clashes with Hannover and Manchester
United.

Wolfsburg coach Dieter Hecking says a knee injury could rule
Luiz Gustavo out of this month's fixtures with Hannover and
Manchester United.

The midfielder was withdrawn prior to the hour mark in
Wolfsburg's 5-1 defeat to Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena on
Tuesday after injuring himself in a challenge with Arturo Vidal.

Hecking was unhappy with the display in Munich as Robert
Lewandowski scored five times in nine minutes to seal the
points in emphatic fashion after Daniel Caligiuri had given the
visitors the lead.

And the Wolfsburg boss faces being without Luiz Gustavo for
Saturday's Bundesliga visit of Hannover as well as the
Champions League trip to Old Trafford on Wednesday.

"It does not look good for Saturday, even for Manchester it
could be tight," said Hecking, who also has doubts over Josuha
Guilavogui (hand) and Vieirinha (thigh).

"We must see that the inflammation goes down quickly."
