Predicted Borussia Dortmund lineup for Bayer Leverkusen clash
By Tushar Bahl
Defenders: Thomas Meunier, Mats Hummels, Nico Schlotterbeck, Raphael Guerreiro
Edin Terzic went with a back four for last week’s win over 1860 Munich, and the likelihood is that he will stick with the same formation for the game on Saturday. With Niklas Süle injured, Mats Hummels will slot into the starting XI to start alongside Nico Schlotterbeck in defence.
The former SC Freiburg man will be one to watch for Borussia Dortmund, and his battle against Patrik Schick could play an important role in deciding the outcome of the game.
Thomas Meunier will keep his starting spot at right-back. The Belgian international will be looking to make more of an impact than he did in last week’s game against 1860 Munich.
Raphael Guerreiro showed glimpses of his quality last week. But he had a torrid time when these two sides last met. And he will have to be at his best defensively if Borussia Dortmund are to get the three points on Saturday.
