Forwards: Jadon Sancho, Marco Reus, Gio Reyna, Thorgan Hazard

Erling Haaland’s injury means Borussia Dortmund’s front four remains unchanged. Thorgan Hazard keeps his place in the starting XI after scoring last weekend against Holstein Kiel.

Jadon Sancho will have a crucial role to play this weekend. The England international will be aiming to lead the team to victory against RB Leipzig, just like he did in the reverse fixture.

Marco Reus will start in the number ten role if Haaland is fit. Otherwise, he could play as a false nine like he did against Holstein Kiel. The Borussia Dortmund captain has been in fine form in recent weeks.

Gio Reyna also starts after overcoming his calf injury. The USMNT international returned to training on Thursday and will now be aiming to continue his fine run of form this weekend.
