Borussia Dortmund vs Paderborn: Predicted lineup for DFB Pokal clash
By Tushar Bahl
Forwards: Jadon Sancho, Julian Brandt, Gio Reyna, Erling Haaland
Jadon Sancho has been one of Borussia Dortmund’s best players since the tun of the year. The last time the Englishman faced Paderborn, he scored his first career hat-trick. And he will be aiming to keep his excellent run of form going on Tuesday.
Julian Brandt should also keep his place in the side, with Marco Reus the more likely candidate for a rest. Brandt has been used in a number of different positions over the last few games, and it will be interesting to see where he starts this time around.
Gio Reyna will likely start on the wing. He has shown glimpses of his quality in recent weeks, but has been lacking the final product. Hopefully, a good performance against Paderborn will be the confidence boost he needs to recapture his early season form.
Erling Haaland will likely start as the striker on Tuesday. But Youssoufa Moukoko and Steffen Tigges are the other options available to Edin Terzic should his main man be in need of a rest.
