Leipzig (AP) - RB Leipzig goes into the Friday game of the Bundesliga against FC Augsburg without two important regular players.

Coach Julian Nagelsmann leaves both defense chief Dayot Upamecano and captain Marcel Sabitzer on the bench.

Yussuf Poulsen gets a chance in attack.

The Danish international was last in the Bundesliga at the beginning of January against Borussia Dortmund.

Poulsen scored a goal in Leipzig's 2-0 victory in Augsburg.

Augsburg coach Heiko Herrlich strengthens the defensive.

Striker Florian Niederlechner did not make it into the starting line-up.

Instead, the central defenders Reece Oxford and Marek Suchy start in Leipzig.
