Predicted Borussia Dortmund line up vs VfL Bochum

Forwards: Karim Adeyemi, Donyell Malen, Sebastien Haller

After his less than impressive display last weekend, it appears unlikely that Marco Reus will keep his place in the starting XI. The trio of Karim Adeyemi, Sebastien Haller and Donyell Malen worked really well during the business end of last season. And if they click once again, they could cause a lot of problems for the Bochum defence.

Malen managed to get the all-important winning goal last weekend and his importance to the team keeps growing.

Adeyemi is closing in on full fitness, and will look to do his talking on the pitch on Saturday after Edin Terzic called for him to add more consistency to his game during the pre-match press conference.

Gio Reyna has started training but is only likely to return to the team after the international break. Youssoufa Moukoko, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and Thorgan Hazard are the other attacking options available to Terzic.
