Borussia Dortmund will hope to overcome their injury crisis and poor away form when they take on FC Augsburg in the Bundesliga this weekend.

Following Borussia Dortmund's second-half collapse in the defeat to Real Madrid, the pressure is already on Nuri Sahin. The BVB head coach will hope to see a response from his players on Saturday as they search for their first away win of the season in the Bundesliga.

Standing in the Black and Yellows way this weekend will be FC Augsburg, who are sitting in 15th place in the Bundesliga standings with three defeats in their last four matches. The Bavarians will hope to pull off an upset on Saturday, but will need their misfiring attack and leaky defence to step up.

Borussia Dortmund will be without several important players against Augsburg, with Niklas Süle joining Karim Adeyemi, Julien Duranville, Yan Couto, and Gio Reyna on the injury list. Here we take a look at how Borussia Dortmund could line up for their Bundesliga match against FC Augsburg.
