Borussia Dortmund team news
Marco Rose comes into this latest round of Bundesliga fixtures missing a slew of players from his matchday squad. Emre Can is suspended while there are several missing through injury. Mahmoud Dahoud (shoulder), Mats Hummels (thigh), Gregor Kobel (ankle), Donyell Malen (muscular), Thomas Meunier (hamstring), Mateu Morey (knee), Giovanni Reyna (hamstring), Marcel Schmelzer (knee) and Steffen Tigges (ankle) sit this game out with respective knocks.

As touched upon, with a win against VfL Bochum, Borussia Dortmund — who have been tough to beat at home this season with 12 wins and just three losses across 15 league contests — could secure the runner-up spot in the Bundesliga regardless of other results. So far BVB have finished second in the Bundesliga seven times – only Bayern have done so more often (10 times, Werder and Schalke also seven), while it would be Dortmund’s sixth runner-up finish in the last 10 seasons.
