Bayern Munich's distributed squad had mixed results this week across multiple leagues. Arijon Ibrahimović created six chances for Augsburg despite the team's 4-3 road defeat to Elversberg, exiting at 74 minutes with his side trailing 3-2. Bryan Zaragoza completed 91% of passes for Espanyol but could not prevent a late Atlético Madrid winner in a scoreless contest before his 82nd-minute substitution.

In Germany's second tier, Felipe Chávez entered for Magdeburg in the 55th minute but recorded limited impact in their 2-0 loss to Dynamo Dresden. Javier Fernández delivered a full 90-minute performance for Nürnberg, generating a shot on target and contributing defensively in a 1-1 draw against Energie Cottbus. Deniz Ofli came off the bench for Karlsruher SC at 66 minutes and added defensive contributions as the team cruised to a 4-0 victory over Darmstadt.

Augsburg face Union Berlin on Saturday, while Magdeburg host Karlsruher SC and Nürnberg welcome Kaiserslautern, both also scheduled for Saturday.
