Wing-backs & Midfield: Mateu Morey, Julian Brandt, Axel Witsel, Raphael Guerreiro

After Mateu Morey’s impressive first Bundesliga start against Leipzig last weekend, he definitely deserves another chance. Achraf Hakimi joining Inter Milan at the end of the season is just another reason Morey deserves to get the start, giving him some much needed game experience. On the other wing, Raphael Guerreiro will keep his spot in the starting lineup. He has been one of Dortmund’s best players in the second half of the season.

With Emre Can suspended, Axel Witsel will start in the midfield pivot alongside Julian Brandt. The latter had a much better performance against Leipzig than any of the few before that, so he will be looking to build on that.
