Team News
Borussia Dortmund
Fortuna Duesseldorf
- With Ilkay Gündogan still doubtful for the game, Sven Bender and Sebastian Kehl could start together in defensive midfield.
- Kevin Großkreutz, Ivan Perisic and Jakub Blaszczykowski compete for a spot on the wing.
- Otherwise, manager Klopp is unlikely to make any changes.
- Starting centre-backs Jens Langeneke and Stelios Malezas are out injured, meaning Juanan and central midfielder Adam Bodzek will have to help out in the back-four.
- With Tobias Levels injured as well, Leon Balogun could get his chance at right-back.
- Robbie Kruse is likely to start up front again, with Ronny Garbuschewski filling in on the right wing.
Lewandowski 2 goals again? ;)
@kelevra thx for the info. Dortmund should still win.
Dortmund are likely to miss Götze and Gündogan as both have problems, Götze with his knee and Gündogan with a sprained ankle. Both should be rested for saturday when they face Bayern. Düsseldorf miss their important defenders Langeneke and Levels.
