Players to Watch

The responsibility of making things happen in attack for Borussia Dortmund will once again fall on Marco Reus and Jadon Sancho. The duo haven’t been able to consistently perform at the level we know they are capable of showing so far. But when they are on their game, they are two of the league’s best players.

Jude Bellingham goes into this weekend’s game in fine form, having impressed once again on Tuesday. The 17 year old is playing with great confidence and making an impact on both ends of the pitch. He will be key on Saturday against a Stuttgart team that will no doubt look to adapt a slightly more defensive approach.

Silas Wamangituka has five goals and two assists in ten Bundesliga games so far this season. The 21 year old goes into this weekend’s game fresh off a match-winning brace against Werder Bremen. And with Nicolás González currently sidelined, he will have a key role to play against Borussia Dortmund. The BVB defenders will have to be wary of his quality.
