Defenders: Thomas Meunier, Manuel Akanji, Mats Hummels, Raphael Guerreiro

Manuel Akanji is able to play from the start despite not training much this week. His presence in the starting XI is a big boost for Borussia Dortmund, as the Switzerland international has been the team’s best defender so far this season.

Mats Hummels will start against his former club, looking to keep Robert Lewandowski quiet. The battle between the two former teammates will be crucial to the outcome of the game.

Raphael Guerreiro appears to be fit again and will be back in the starting XI after missing the last two games due to muscle problems. He will replace Nico Schulz at left-back.

Thomas Meunier will start at right-back. The Belgian international has been enjoying a solid season so far. And he will need to be at his best once again on Saturday.
