Borussia Dortmund vs Sevilla: Team News
By Tushar Bahl
The games keep on coming for Borussia Dortmund as they take on Sevilla on matchday four of the UEFA Champions League group stage on Tuesday.
Fresh off their stunning comeback against Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund will go up against Sevilla in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday evening. The Black and Yellows are potentially just one win away from qualifying for the round of 16, and they will be aiming to get the job done against the Spanish side at the Signal Iduna Park.
Borussia Dortmund have a few injury doubts ahead of the game. While Gregor Kobel is closing in on his return, Marco Reus is unlikely to feature against Sevilla. Mats Hummels is also a doubt after being forced off against Bayern Munich due to circulatory problems, but Edin Terzic revealed during his pre-match press conference that the defender is feeling much better now. Gio Reyna and Thomas Meunier should also make their returns to the squad for Tuesday’s game.
Sevilla were held to a 1-1 draw by Athletic Bilbao on Saturday. The Spanish side parted ways with Julen Lopetegui after last week’s 4-1 defeat to Borussia Dortmund, and Jorge Sampaoli has since taken over as manager.
Sevilla will have to make do without Óliver Torres once again on Tuesday. The attacking midfielder was on target against Athletic Bilbao, but is not part of their Champions League squad. Karim Rekik and Jesús Corona are also sidelined with their respective injuries.
