Lilla Turányi started the international break with Hungary in a World Cup qualifier. The defender played the full 90 minutes in a 7-0 victory over the Faroe Islands. Hungary are currently third in qualifying Group B. Turányi also went the full distance three days later in a friendly against Brazil that saw the South American side win 3-1.
Leverkusen's Milena Nikolić was the key player for Bosnia and Herzegovina. The 29-year-old scored the winner late on in the World Cup qualifier against Azerbaijan (90+4'). The striker also helped secure victory against Montenegro in the second game with a 2-0 win bringing three important points. Bosnia and Herzegovina are currently third in Group E.
Switzerland only managed to pick up one point in two games: In World Cup qualifiers they drew 1-1 with Romania before losing 1-0 against Italy. The Switzerland women's team remain second in Group G. The Bayer 04 duo of Amira Arfaoui and Irina Pando were on standby.
The Leverkusen players Clara Fröhlich, Lisanne Gräwe and Sofie Zdebel sealed qualification for the U19 European Championships. The Black and Red trio were in the starting line-up for the crucial qualifier against Finland. The Germany U19s came through with a 2-1 win on penalties with Bayer 04 player Fröhlich netting her spot kick.

Under Carles Martínez, the Werkself have so far proved unbeatable at the BayArena. The Spaniard has led his team to victory in all three of their most recent home matches – and, it's worth noting, without conceding a single goal. On Sunday, 18 October (kick-off: 15:30 CEST / live on DAZN and Werkself Radio), current league leaders SC Freiburg will make the trip to Leverkusen, but will be without their top scorer. What's more, the Werkself have won all three of their previous home matches against the Black Forest club.

Meanwhile, on what will be the ‘Health Day' at the BayArena, much of the focus will be on physical wellbeing. Today's matchday news.
