Midfielders: Emre Can, Jude Bellingham, Marco Reus

Edin Terzic is spoilt for choice when it comes to options in midfield. Emre Can is playing as well as he ever has in a BVB shirt and will start in the number six role on Wednesday. Chelsea have a number of talented attacking midfielders, so his role as the disruptor in the middle of the park will be crucial.

Jude Bellingham will drive Borussia Dortmund forward as he has done time and time again this season. The England international scored four goals in the Champions League group stage, and he will be determined to make his mark against Chelsea on Wednesday.

The biggest selection dilemma Terzic will be facing ahead of the game is whether to pick Marco Reus or Salih Özcan in the final midfield spot.

The former is the club captain and always steps up in the big games. While the latter is a more defensive minded option, and having him in midfield would free up Jude Bellingham to play his natural game. It will be interesting to see who gets the nod to start.
