Midfield: Felix Nmecha, Pascal Groß, Julian Brandt

Nuri Sahin faces a bit of a selection headache in midfield with Emre Can available again after missing Saturday's Bundesliga clash through suspension. The Borussia Dortmund captain will hope to slot straight back into the starting XI, but Sahin may well look to field the midfield trio that dominated proceedings against Freiburg.

Felix Nmecha is finally coming into his own at Borussia Dortmund and will likely start in the number six role once again. The Germany international has scored in his last two games for club and country.

It will be interesting to see who starts alongside Nmecha. Pascal Groß could come into contention once again, while Marcel Sabitzer will hope to retain his spot in the starting XI. The decision could also be made with one eye on this weekend's home game against Bayern Munich.

Julian Brandt will likely retain his spot in the number ten role, fresh off his sublime free-kick that proved to be his first Bundesliga goal since May.
