The Steinbach Black Wings Linz will have to be without their striker for a long time. The Slovenian will be out until the turn of the year after suffering a lower body injury.
The personnel concerns on the Lower Donaulände had decreased significantly in the past few weeks. Luis Lindner, the last medium-term loss to date, returned to the squad on Sunday in the away game in Feldkirch.
Apart from a few currently ailing question marks, the Upper Austrians have recently been able to almost completely catch up in the table. After the intensive return from the international break, there is now a new downer for head coach Philipp Lukas.
Luka Maver was injured last Friday during the home game against Pustertal. After an unfortunate step, the Slovenian had to end the match early and underwent more detailed examinations in the past few days. After an MRI, these revealed a tear in the collateral ligament. According to current information from the medical department, a return to play is expected in six to eight weeks.
