Forwards: Julian Brandt, Thorgan Hazard, Donyell Malen

With Marco Reus, Youssoufa Moukoko and Steffen Tigges all ruled out, and Erling Haaland only fit to start on the bench, Borussia Dortmund do not have too many options left in attack.

Donyell Malen will lead the line, as he has done in recent weeks. He has shown a few encouraging signs with his performances since the turn of the year. And the hope will be that he can lead Borussia Dortmund to victory on Sunday.

Thorgan Hazard scored a stunning goal against Augsburg two weeks ago. But he hasn’t been consistent enough this season, and reports have claimed in recent weeks that he could be sold in the summer.

Julian Brandt is in the same boat as Thorgan Hazard. The playmaker will need to deliver much improved performances in the coming weeks if he wants to stay at Borussia Dortmund beyond the end of the season.

Erling Haaland and Reinier are set to start on the bench for Borussia Dortmund on Sunday.
