Attack: Jadon Sancho, Erling Haaland, Thorgan Hazard

Jadon Sancho loves playing Bayer Leverkusen, that’s always the good news when these two sides meet. Jadon Sancho always has a great game and with the form he’s currently in, he could be in line for a monster game if he keeps that up.

With Marco Reus missing with injury, Erling Haaland should get the start up front. His fitness may still need some improvement after his January injury, but Borussia Dortmund desperately need him to lead the line on this one.

It will be interesting to see which one of Gio Reyna or Thorgan Hazard replaces Marco Reus on the wing. Reyna has played well with the chances he has been given but in a game against this strong of opposition Favre will likely go with Hazard, who was one of the team’s best players in the first half of the season.
