THE LOWDOWN

BORUSSIA DORTMUND

Borussia Dortmund’s unbeaten start to the season was ended by a UEFA Champions League loss to PSG during the week. Dortmund were no match for their opponents in that game but will hope to respond back in Bundesliga action.

They sit on eight points after four matches having defeated Freiburg in their last domestic clash and having avoided defeat in their last 17 league games on home soil, they will be confident of extending that run in this encounter.

WOLFSBURG

Wolfsburg bounced back from their loss against Hoffenheim by getting the better of Union Berlin last time out. That is now three wins from four games for Wolfsburg to begin the season and they will hold no fear on this trip.

Their only defeat so far this season occurred on the road while they have lost three of their last four games away from home so that may prove to be problematic for them in this contest.

THE TEAM NEWS

BORUSSIA DORTMUND

Marcel Sabitzer was forced off early on in the game with PSG and he will now join Mateu Morey and Thomas Meunier on the sidelines as a result while Marius Wolf is also in some doubt with a knock.

PREDICTED XI (4-3-3): Kobel; Ryerson, Hummels, Schlotterbeck, Bensebaini; Nmecha, Can, Brandt; Malen, Füllkrug, Adeyemi

UNAVAILABLE: Meunier (Injured), Morey (Injured), Sabitzer (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Wolf (Injured)

WOLFSBURG

Wolfsburg will be without Kilian Fischer and Lukas Nmecha once again as the pair continue to battle with knee injuries but their squad is pretty much at full-strength for this game with any changes likely to be tactical.

PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Casteels; Maehle, Lacroix, Jenz, Rogério; Svanberg, Arnold; Wimmer, Majer, Gerhardt; Wind

UNAVAILABLE: Fischer (Injured), Nmecha (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Paredes (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

Borussia Dortmund were dominated by PSG during the week and they will hope a return to Bundesliga action as well as home comforts can help them bounce. Wolfsburg have started the season well but this is a tough matchup against a side that rarely lose on home soil so it is worth backing the hosts to earn all three points in this one.
