Borussia Dortmund team news

The hosts will be without midfield duo Carney Chukwuemeka and Marcel Sabitzer, likely paving the way for Felix Nmecha and Pascal Groß to anchor the midfield in a double pivot role. Defensive mainstays Emre Can and Nico Schlotterbeck are also unavailable, meaning a back three of Niklas Süle, Waldemar Anton, and Ramy Bensebaini is expected.

Up front, red-hot striker Serhou Guirassy, fresh off a hat-trick against Barcelona, will spearhead the attack. He could be flanked by the pacey Karim Adeyemi and promising forward Maximilian Beier.

Borussia Monchengladbach team news

As for the visitors, injuries to Franck Honorat and Nathan N'Goumou will force a reshuffle in attack. Tomas Cvancara, Alassane Plea, and Robin Hack are likely to support striker Tim Kleindienst in the final third.

In goal, Moritz Nicolas's season-ending groin issue hands the gloves to Tiago Pereira Cardoso, who will be shielded by centre-backs Ko Itakura and Nico Elvedi. The midfield pairing will likely consist of Florian Neuhaus and Julian Weigl, with Niklas Swider, Philipp Sander, and Rocco Reitz all ruled out through injury.
