Midfielders: Axel Witsel, Jude Bellingham, Julian Brandt

Borussia Dortmund have a real shortage of options when it comes to the midfield positions. So we will see Marco Rose stick with the same three players that started in these roles at the weekend.

Starting in midfield will be Axel Witsel, Jude Bellingham and Julian Brandt. Witsel had a torrid time in the reverse fixture and will need to deliver a much improved performance if Borussia Dortmund are to have any chance of getting the three points.

Both Bellingham and Brandt are in good form going into the game, and their creativity will be crucial to Borussia Dortmund’s hopes on Wednesday.

Tobias Raschl starts on the bench to add some midfield depth to the team.
