Predicted Borussia Dortmund lineup for Bundesliga clash against Freiburg
By Tushar Bahl
Marco Reus and Raphael Guerreiro are set to return to the starting XI as Borussia Dortmund travel to SC Freiburg on Saturday. Having won their last two games, the Black and Yellows will now be aiming to go on a winning run and keep the momentum flowing with a tough set of fixtures coming up.
Borussia Dortmund are currently in sixth place in the Bundesliga standings, but could find themselves as high as third or as low as eighth at the end of the weekend.
Edin Terzic will have to make do without at least six first-team players against Freiburg, with Roman Bürki (shoulder), Thomas Meunier (knee), Axel Witsel (achilles tendon), Thorgan Hazard (muscle), Dan-Axel Zagadou (hamstring) and Marcel Schmelzer (rehab after surgery) all ruled out. Mats Hummels should be fit to return to the side after missing Tuesday’s Pokal win over Paderborn.
Here we take a look at how Borussia Dortmund could line up against Freiburg.
Goalkeeper: Marwin Hitz
Marwin Hitz will be in goal for Borussia Dortmund on Saturday. The Swiss shot stopper has done a solid job in the absence of the injured Roman Bürki. And he will be aiming for another good performance, which could force Edin Terzic into a decision when Bürki returns from his injury.
