Kroos (groin) came on for Mario Mandzukic at the 64-minute mark of Saturday's 2-1 win over TSG Hoffenheim.

Kroos didn't take a single shot during his time on the pitch, the first time he's done that in league play since August 24 against Nurnberg. He was questionable coming into the match but it appears manager Pep Guardiola wanted him to get some time in before Tuesday's Champions League match against Viktoria Plzen.

Kroos (groin) is available for Bayern Munich's match against TSG Hoffenheim on Saturday, although he'll start on the bench.

Kroos looked headed to miss out completely due to his groin injury, although it appears he's fit enough to at least be available to play. It wouldn't be surprising if he stayed on the bench for the full 90 with a Champions League match against Viktoria Plzen coming up on Tuesday.

Kroos (groin) has returned to training but is unlikely to play Saturday against TSG Hoffenheim, Goal.com reports.

Bayern manager Pep Guardiola revealed that Kroos is likely fit enough to play in Saturday's Bundesliga match but he'll likely sit in preparation of Tuesday's Champions League match against Viktoria Plzen.

Kroos resumed individual training Monday after picking up a slight groin injury in Saturday's Bundesliga match against Hertha Berlin, according to Goal.com.

Kroos left Saturday's game in the 24th minute and was replaced by Mario Gotze, who went on to score a goal. The injury was not deemed serious and he seems in good shape to be ready for Bayern's next game, which comes November 2 against TSG Hoffenheim.

Kroos was forced from Saturday's Bundesliga match against Hertha Berlin in the 24th minute due to a groin injury, although he is still expected to be fit for Bayern's next league match, which comes November 2 against TSG Hoffenheim, according to Reuters.

Kroos was replaced by Mario Gotze, who went on to score his first Bayern league goal in the 54th minute. Kroos hasn't been a great fantasy option this season, scoring one goal and assisting on another in 10 appearances.

Kroos scored in the 30th minute off a pass from Franck Ribery during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen.

The goal was Kroos's first in Bundesliga play this season, as he's struggled to find a consistent place on the pitch throughout the year. After recording an assist during last Tuesday's Champions League win at Manchester City, plus the goal Saturday, manager Pep Guardiola may find it hard to keep him off the pitch moving forward.
