The Jamaican suffered a hamstring injury in the first half of the home game against FC Nürnberg on Easter Saturday  20 April.

That was revealed after an MRI scan on Easter Sunday. It remains to be seen if he will be able to play again this term with progress depending on the healing process over the next few days. 

Bailey has appeared in 29 out of 30 Bundesliga matches this season. The Werkself number nine has been directly involved in seven goals (five goals and two assists) in the current campaign.
