Borussia Dortmund's Gio Reyna will miss their upcoming Bundesliga game against Bayern Munich due to a bad cold, as confirmed by manager, Edin Terzic. The midfielder was expected to feature in the game that could see Dortmund secure their first league title in over a decade. Alongside Reyna, Thomas Meunier will also be unavailable for the game due to back problems.
Reyna's absence adds to the USMNT's sick bay, which includes Christian Pulisic and Weston McKennie, who picked up an illness during the international break. Meanwhile, Bayern Munich has had better fortune with injuries, with only Mathys Tel sidelined due to an adductor strain.
The upcoming game could be crucial to the title race, with Dortmund currently leading Bayern by a point. These two teams are renowned rivals, with Dortmund having only won once in their past eight meetings in the Bundesliga. The last time the Black and Yellows won at the Allianz Arena was in April 2014. Despite Reyna's absence, Dortmund will be hoping to put an end to Bayern's dominance and push one step closer to a potential league title win.
