----------------------------------------------------------------------
Borussia Dortmund
Despite battling a lengthy injury list, Edin Terzic could receive some respite from it and welcome the likes of Marco Reus, Julian Brandt and Gregor Kobel back into his starting lineup. Meanwhile, there are doubts over Jadon Sancho’s fitness after he was ruled out with a groin problem just before the Heidenheim game.
Should he remain absent for this game, the Manchester United loanee will join fellow attackers Karim Adeyemi and Felix Nmecha on the sidelines. Sebastien Haller also remains away with Ivory Coast, meaning Terzic will continue to miss some of his key attackers.
Meanwhile, Thomas Meunier and Giovanni Reyna completed their moves away from the club late in the transfer window. Youssoufa Moukoko and Niclas Fullkrug should keep their places up front, as Terzic would again prefer a two-prone attacking set-up in the last line of the attack.
Emre Can should sit at the base of midfield, while Donyell Malen and Jamie Bynoe-Gittens should provide the attacking impetus to the front two alongside Marcel Sabitzer.
Probable Lineup (4-1-3-2): Kobel; Wolf, Hummels, Schlotterbeck, Maatsen; Can; Malen, Sabitzer, Bynoe-Gittens; Fullkrug, Moukoko
SC Freiburg
SC Freiburg will have a key player returning to action in the form of attacker Ritsu Doan. The Japanese international has returned to the club following Japan’s elimination from the AFC Asian Cup at the hands of Iran.
Kenneth Schmidt, Philipp Lienhart and Merlin Rohl. There are others who are doubtful about this one, including Matthias Ginter, Max Rosenfelder and Daniel-Kofi Kyereh. Rohl remains suspended and is not an injury-enforced absentee after being sent off against Stuttgart in the first 20 minutes last weekend.
Kilian Sildillia and Manuel Gulde are the preferred options at centre-back, especially with Ginter absent. Maximilian Eggestein and Nicolas Hofler feature in central midfield.
Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Atubolu; Kubler, Sildillia, Gulde, Makengo; Eggestein, Hofler; Doan, Grifo, Sallai; Gregoritsch
Prediction： Borussia Dortmund 2-1 SC Freiburg
The visitors are in a terrible run of form, having lost the last two in the Bundesliga, and now they face a tricky challenge in the context of their campaign. Borussia Dortmund will come into this clash knowing their need to keep winning and hold that fourth place. However, SC Freiburg are not about to be quickly sidelined and will provide a stern test for Terzic’s men. Despite their long list of injured stars, Dortmund still have the quality to get the best of Freiburg and take the three points, something they might do, albeit in a slender manner.
