Marco Reus is finding his form at the right time. The Borussia Dortmund captain now has three goals and an assist in his last five games. His performance on Thursday will certainly be crucial to Borussia Dortmund’s chances of victory.
Dani Olmo caused the Borussia Dortmund defenders a few problems on Saturday. And he will have a key role to play for RB Leipzig in the Pokal final.
