Team News

Borussia Dortmund will be missing Marco Reus, Julian Brandt and Thomas Delaney against Frankfurt with all of them out with injury. Julian Brandt was brought further up the pitch against Leverkusen to replace the injured Reus and now Favre will have another decision to make with Brandt missing. The most likely scenario will be bringing Thorgan Hazard into the Dortmund attack alongside Erling Haaland and Jadon Sancho.

Eintracht Frankfurt haven’t had their press conference yet confirming who will be missing, but they will for sure but without Marco Ross, Gelson Fernandes and Lucas Torro.

Predicted Lineups

Borussia Dortmund: Burki – Akanji, Hummels, Zagadou – Hakimi, Can, Witsel, Guerreiro – Hazard, Haaland, Sancho

Eintracht Frankfurt: Trapp – Toure, Hinteregger, Abraham, N’Dicka – Rode, Sow – Kostic, Gacinovic, Chandler – Silva
