The 23-year-old striker, who started the match before being replaced late on by Umar Sadiq, did not participate in Thursday’s training session as his team prepared for the encounter.
Boniface, an integral part of Leverkusen’s attack with eight goals in 15 appearances across all competitions this season, endured a lengthy absence last season due to an adductor issue.
Fans now await updates to determine if the injury sidelines him for an extended period again.
