Leverkusen (AP) - Bayer Leverkusen's football coach Peter Bosz is hoping for team captain Charles Aranguiz before the Bundesliga game on Saturday (3:30 p.m.) against VfL Wolfsburg.

“Of course he can feel his whole body, not just the Achilles tendon.

We have to look after the training whether Charlie is operational, ”said Bosz on Friday.

Midfielder Aranguiz had surprisingly made his comeback in the starting line-up against Dortmund (2-1) after a three-month injury break last Tuesday, but had to leave the field after 70 minutes.

"It's not quite there yet, but it's on the right track," said Bosz.

Against Wolfsburg, Leverkusen wants to distance another direct competitor in the fight for the Champions League places.

The momentum from the success against BVB should help.

“Winning games gives you confidence.

We'll take that with us, ”said Bosz.

The Bayer coach sees another demanding challenge in Lower Saxony: “Wolfsburg is a very compact team.

It's not easy to win a game against Wolfsburg this season. "

In the first half of the Bundesliga season, VfL had only lost two games.
