Germany's top two divisions have enforced strict rules and regulations amid its return to action in recent weeks.
To ensure safety from the coronavirus, players are regularly tested, and are barred from shaking hands with their opponents and celebrating goals in close contact with teammates, among other things.
Away from the pitch, players are also encouraged to continue taking precautionary measures to avoid coming into contact with the virus, including not having visitors at home.

However, six BVB players have been accused of ignoring those instructions after using the services of a hairdresser last week ahead of their weekend fixture.
Bild has reported that Sancho, Raphael Guerreiro, Manuel Akanji, Thorgan Hazard, Axel Witsel and Dan-Axel Zagadou all received haircuts from hairdresser Winnie Nana Karkari, and photos appeared to show none of the aforementioned players using a face mask as per regulations.
"It is pretty common that our guys must get their hair cut after all these months," Dortmund responded to Bild when questioned on the matter.

"But it surely is a no-go, from both sides, to not wear a mask. We will remind our players about that very, very clearly. Also: the stylist should ask himself about his behaviour, too."
