Predicted Borussia Dortmund lineup vs Bayern Munich
By Tushar Bahl
Another crucial game awaits Borussia Dortmund this weekend as they take on title rivals Bayern Munich at the Signal Iduna Park.
The first Der Klassiker of the season is finally upon us and Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich will lock horns this weekend in what should be an enthralling contest. Both teams are level on points going into the topspiel. And they will both be aiming to deliver a statement of intent on Saturday.
Borussia Dortmund will be without captain Marco Reus this weekend. But there is optimism that Mats Hummels could return to the squad to bolster the defence. The Black and Yellows could also welcome Gregor Kobel, Gio Reyna and Marius Wolf back into the squad. But Mahmoud Dahoud, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, Sebastien Haller and Mateu Morey remain sidelined for now.
Here we take a look at how Borussia Dortmund could line up for their Bundesliga clash against Bayern Munich.
Goalkeeper: Alexander Meyer
Alexander Meyer delivered an excellent performance against Sevilla on Wednesday and could start once again this weekend. First-choice goalkeeper Gregor Kobel is closing in on his return to full fitness. But he has been sidelined for a while now, and Edin Terzic may decide not to risk him for the game against Bayern.
