Borussia Dortmund
- Håvard Nordtveit could get another chance in the back-three, if Benjamin Hübner does not recover from muscular problems in time.
- Pavel Kaderábek returns from a one-match ban to start on the right flank.
- Robert Zulj could get a chance in central midfield, with Kerem Demirbay and Lukas Rupp both injured.
- Lukasz Piszczek or Julian Weigl might have to help out at centre-back, with Sokratis suspended and Ömer Toprak unlikely to recover from a muscle injury in time.
- Manuel Akanji is expected to help out in the second centre-back spot, with Marcel Schmelzer and Jeremy Toljan possibly filling in on the flanks.
- Manager Peter Stöger could also switch to a back-three and give U23 centre-back Patrick Mainka a chance from the off.
I believe Burki had at least 5 errors lead to goal this season.
classic burki
First half 0-0
@footballover You really seem to love that result, 80% of your predictions look like that.
Ladies & Gentlemen , its time to rob the bookies, this is a match that decide who will qualify to CL, BTTS is the best option here the two needs a win , so i expect an attacking game between both sides
@Cannavaro69 Have you even looked at the table or are you chatting rubbish as usual? Dortmund only need a draw.
@uefalona Hey just waste your time in rubbish and stupid comments , and i make money :D
@Cannavaro69 you win 1.30 while u loss all ur money on inter ? damn.
@Cannavaro69 rob the bookies ? Btts is 1.30 !
@Milanbettingmaster I make a high Bet dude, my bet was $2,000 for BTTS i made a profit $600
@Milanbettingmaster I was going to say the same thing...however, an interesting bet would be BTTS in the 2nd half @ 2.00 ;)
@Cannavaro69 you are right. Dortmund can't afford to lose this game.
