CONFIRMED Borussia Dortmund lineup for Bundesliga clash against FC Köln
By Tushar Bahl
Defense: Thomas Meunier, Emre Can, Mats Hummels, Nico Schulz
With Mateu Morey out injured, Thomas Meunier makes his return to the starting XI. The Belgian international had a torrid time in the reverse fixture and fans will be hoping for a much improved display from him this time around.
Akanji is only just returning from a torn muscle fibre, and so he starts on the bench. Edin Terzic has gone with Emre Can and Mats Hummels as his two central defenders. Dan-Axel Zagadou is not in the squad after missing training on both Thursday and Friday.
Nico Schulz keeps his place at left-back, with Raphael Guerreiro still out injured.
