Manuel Akanji, Mats Hummels, Dan Axel Zagadou

It will be interesting to see if Lucien Favre sticks with the back four that conceded four goals against Bayer Leverkusen last weekend.

The injury problems in attack could force his hand, and we could see the return of the back three. If that is the case, Manuel Akanji will likely keep his place despite his poor performances in recent weeks.

Mats Hummels scored his first goal since returning to Borussia Dortmund last weekend, and is set captain the team once again. Dan Axel Zagadou is expected to line up on the left side of the three man defence.
