Team News

Borussia Dortmund’s injury situation is continuing to ease up, with Raphael Guerreiro set to be available. Erling Haaland is also likely to be an option for the starting XI. Jude Bellingham made his return to team training on Thursday, and could be on the bench.

Gio Reyna is not an option yet despite making his return to training. Also sidelined is Youssoufa Moukoko, who has a torn muscle fibre. While Thorgan Hazard is in quarantine after testing positive for COVID-19 last week. Manuel Akanji is also a doubt, but he did make his return to training on Friday.

Bayern Munich have a long list of absentees themselves. They will be without Joshua Kimmich, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (COVID-19), Marcel Sabitzer (calf), Bouna Sarr (adductor) and Josip Stanisic (thigh). Leon Goretzka is said to be a doubt as he is struggling with hip problems.

Expected Lineups

Borussia Dortmund: Kobel – Meunier, Pongracic, Hummels, Guerreiro – Can, Dahoud, Brandt – Reus, Malen, Haaland

Bayern Munich: Neuer – Pavard, Upamecano, Hernandez, Davies – Tolisso, Goretzka – Coman, Müller, Sane – Lewandowski
