If he plays we may be risking a longer injury break,; Schaaf said. Werder are already without suspended top striker Hugo Almeida.    Relegation-threatened Cologne will be without striker Milivoje Novakovic when they travel to in-form Schalke 04 after he was ruled out with a minor muscle injury.The Slovenian is the second big-name absence after Lukas Podolski, who is already sidelined with a ligament tear.
