- Ömer Toprak returns from suspension to start at centre-back.
- Sebastian Boenisch and the returning Michal Kadlec compete for a spot at left-back. The former is very likely to keep his spot for now.
- Stefan Reinartz could drop to the bench again, with Gonzalo Castro starting in central midfield and Sidney Sam filling in on the right wing.
- Alexander Manninger will continue in goal with Simon Jentzsch not yet fit.
- Winter signing Michael Parkhurst could replace the injured Ronny Philp at right-back.
- At left-back, Marcel de Jong and Matthias Ostrzolek compete for a spot in the starting line-up.
- Aristide Bancé is back from the AFCON after an impressive tournament with Burkina Faso. He will most likely start on the bench though, with Sascha Mölders in decent form as well.
