Suspension served

Sugawara has served his one-match suspension and is no longer suspended.

Analysis: Sugawara had been sent off in the fifth minute of last Saturday's loss to Hoffenheim, effectively ending his domestic season prematurely. The Japanese international will now shift his focus entirely to the World Cup this summer before returning to Southampton ahead of the 2026/27 season. Sugawara ends the season with six assists, 20 chances created and 73 crosses across 31 Bundesliga appearances while on loan from Southampton.

Sent off Saturday

Sugawara was shown a red card in the fifth minute of Saturday's 1-0 loss to Hoffenheim.

Analysis: Sugawara would start Saturday's match in a bad way, earning a red card just five minutes in that would leave his club a man down most of the contest. Unfortunately, this will end the defender's season, as they only have one match to play left. He has been a starter pretty much all season, so a change will be made, with Felix Agu potentially pushed back into the defense.
