With Karim Adeyemi suspended and Donyell Malen a doubt, Edin Terzic has a decision to make on who comes into the team.

One option would be to make a straight swap, with one of Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and Marco Reus slotting in. The talented English winger showed glimpses of his quality against Atletico Madrid and could be given the chance to play from the start. The other option would be to field a back three to match Bayer Leverkusen's formation, with Niklas Süle joining Mats Hummels and Nico Schlotterbeck in defence.

Regardless, Jadon Sancho will likely play from the start on Sunday as he looks for his third goal since joining Borussia Dortmund on loan from Manchester United in January.

Niclas Füllkrug is set to lead the Borussia Dortmund attack on Sunday, having ended his goalscoring drought against Atletico Madrid earlier this week.

Expected Borussia Dortmund lineup vs Bayer Leverkusen: Kobel - Ryerson, Hummels, Schlotterbeck, Maatsen - Can, Sabitzer, Brandt - Bynoe-Gittens, Sancho - Füllkrug
