Expected Borussia Dortmund lineup vs Sturm Graz

Goalkeeper: Alexander Meyer

After putting in a solid shift in goal against RB Leipzig, Alexander Meyer will once again fill in for the injured Gregor Kobel on Tuesday.

Defence: Pascal Groß, Emre Can, Nico Schlotterbeck, Ramy Bensebaini

In all likelihood, Borussia Dortmund will once again field a make-shift back four with Pascal Groß set to fill in at right-back in the absence of Yan Couto and Julian Ryerson.

Emre Can has done well at centre-back in the last two games and is expected to start in that role again on Tuesday. It remains to be seen if Sahin will look to give the talented Filippo Mane a chance to play from the start amid the team's congested fixture list.

Nico Schlotterbeck has been the only constant in the Borussia Dortmund defence so far this season. The Germany international will once again start at centre-back and will hope to lead the way.

Ramy Bensebaini had another solid game against RB Leipzig. And while he also seemed to be struggling with a knock, it appears that he will play from the start on Tuesday.
