Borussia Dortmund predicted lineup for VfL Bochum clash
By Tushar Bahl
Borussia Dortmund vs VfL Bochum: Expected starting XI
GK: Gregor Kobel - Kobel was Borussia Dortmund's top performer last weekend despite conceding five goals. He will be desperate for some help from those in front of him on Friday.
RB: Yan Couto - We could see a change at right-back, with Coutto in line for an opportunity. The Brazilian could potentially replace Julian Ryerson, who did not have the best of games against Stuttgart.
CB: Waldemar Anton - Anton had a difficult return to his former club and will hope for a much more comfortable evening against Bochum on Friday. He will look to keep Myron Boadu at bay.
CB: Nico Schlotterbeck - It might be time for Nuri Sahin to ditch his three centre-backs in a back four experiment and play Schlotterbeck in his preferred role. If he does make the change, Niklas Süle could find himself on the bench.
LB: Ramy Bensebaini - Bensebaini could return to the starting XI and play at left-back, having shown some glimpses of his quality in the early weeks of the seasonn.
