Bayern lose Lucio
Bundesliga league leaders Bayern Munich will be without Brazilian defender Lucio for their UEFA Cup group stage game with Red Star Belgrade in Serbia on Thursday.
The 29-year-old central defender has been suffering from a stomach infection and was absent from training on Sunday, so misses the trip to Belgrade for Thursday's Group F match.
Having taken part in Saturday's 2-1 league victory over VfL Bochum, the Brazilian fell ill after Bayern's eighth league win off the season.
Bayern and Red Star also have English Premier League side Bolton in their qualifying group. The top three sides in each group go into a 32-team knock-out phase.
