By Tushar Bahl
Borussia Dortmund return to Bundesliga action this weekend as they take on FC Köln at the RheinEnergieSTADION. Having won six of their last eight games, the Black and Yellows will be eyeing a straight forward victory on Saturday.
Edin Terzic has a number of injury issues to deal with ahead of the game, with Jadon Sancho, Raphael Guerreiro, Mateu Morey all ruled out due to injuries. Marco Reus also misses out, and so does Dan-Axel Zagadou. But Mats Hummels and Manuel Akanji are back in the squad after overcoming their injuries.
The game will be a must-win one for both teams, with Borussia Dortmund locked in the battle for top four and FC Köln fighting to avoid relegation. Reports in Germany claim that Köln head coach Markus Gisdol could be sacked if his side fail to get a result on Saturday.
Here we take a look at how Borussia Dortmund will line up for their Bundesliga clash against FC Köln.
Goalkeeper: Marwin Hitz
Marwin Hitz has taken over as the first choice goalkeeper in recent weeks. He has been a reliable presence in goal, and will be looking to keep his second-straight clean sheet this weekend.
