Borussia Dortmund will be without the suspended Mats Hummels for Saturday’s home game against Hertha Berlin, as Jadon Sancho looks to build on last weekend’s hat-trick.

With just five games to go before the Bundesliga campaign comes to an end, Borussia Dortmund will be looking to strengthen their hold on second place. This weekend they host Hertha Berlin, who have been in excellent form since the Bundesliga restart, having won three and drawn one of their four games.

Borussia Dortmund will once again have to make do without the injured Marco Reus, Dan Axel Zagadou and Mahmoud Dahoud. Erling Haaland is back in training but it is highly unlikely that he will start on Saturday. Mats Hummels will also miss the game through suspension, having picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in the previous game.

Here we look at how Borussia Dortmund could line-up against Hertha Berlin.

Goalkeeper: Roman Bürki

Bürki will keep his place between the sticks. And he could be in for a busy evening as Borussia Dortmund go up against a team with a potent strike force.
