After last weekend’s home win against Eintracht Frankfurt, Borussia Dortmund will look to stay top of the league as they face VfL Bochum.

As the season nears its end, the idea that Borussia Dortmund may be crowned as champions is slowly becoming a possibility. Each of the last five Bundesliga matches left will have the feeling of a final and this one is no different. While BVB look to end the season with the Bundesliga title, VfL Bochum are aiming to avoid relegation, making this derby clash an exciting one.

Edin Terzic will look to select a starting XI and formation that will provide attacking flair and defensive security. In terms of forwards and midfielders, the BVB head coach has plenty of options. With the recent form of Donyell Malen and the return of Karim Adeyemi, the team looks very exciting and creative when they are on the front foot.

Here we take a look at how Borussia Dortmund could line up as they prepare to face Bochum on the 30th matchday of the Bundesliga.

Goalkeeper – Gregor Kobel

Earning nine clean sheets this season, and being the standout goalkeeper in the Bundesliga, Gregor Kobel will start in goal against Bochum on Friday.
