Borowski out for Bremen

Tim Borowski could miss Bremen's next Champions League game against Levski.

Tim Borowski could miss Werder Bremen's next UEFA Champions League game against Levski Sofia.

The influential midfielder picked up a leg injury during Bremen's 1-1 draw with holders Barcelona in midweek.

The German outfit expect Borowski to be out of action for up to three weeks, meaning he is a doubt for the October 18 encounter with Levski.

He will also be missing from international duty, with Germany due to play Georgia in a friendly and Slovakia in a Euro 2008 qualifier next month.

Borowski's team-mate Patrick Owomoyela picked up a knock in training on Thursday, but he is only expected to miss the weekend's meeting with Borussia Monchengladbach.
