Borussia Dortmund vs FC Barcelona: Predicted lineup for Champions League clash
By Tushar Bahl
Expected Borussia Dortmund lineup vs Barcelona
Goalkeeper: Gregor Kobel
Kobel will start in goal for Borussia Dortmund once again and will hope to keep the dangerous Barcelona forwards at bay. He could be in for a busy evening on Wednesday.
Defence: Julian Ryerson, Emre Can, Nico Schlotterbeck, Ramy Bensebaini
Borussia Dortmund look set to be forced into making at least one change to their back four, with Niklas Süle picking up an ankle injury this past weekend to join Waldemar Anton on the sidelines. So club captain Emre Can will likely fill in at centre-back and will hope to deliver a strong performance to boost his hopes of earning back his spot in the regular starting XI.
Nico Schlotterbeck has been ever-present for Borussia Dortmund again this season, and will lead the defence against Robert Lewandowski and co. on Wednesday.
Starting at left-back will be Ramy Bensebaini, who could be in for a hard-fought battle against the talented Lamine Yamal. On the opposite flank, Julian Ryerson will hope to keep the in-form Raphinha quiet.
