Bochum vs Borussia Dortmund Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Bochum vs Borussia Dortmund lineups and team news for Saturday’s encounter below.
Bochum
Bochum will be missing Matus Bero, Tim Oermann, Moritz Kwarteng and Mohammed Tolba this weekend. Bochum were obliterated 5-0 at Stuttgart in their first league test of the new campaign last week.
Predicted Lineup for Bochum: Riemann – Masovic, Ordets, Bernardo – Passlack, Losilla, Stoger, Wittek – Asano, Antwi-Adjei, Hofmann
Borussia Dortmund
The injury picture at Dortmund is starting to improve though they still can't call upon the services of Thomas Meunier, Julien Duranville, Mateu Morey and Giovanni Reyna. BVB needed an 88th-minute winner to topple Koln last week.
Predicted Lineup for Borussia Dortmund: Kobel – Ryerson, Sule, Hummels, Bensebaini – Sabitzer, Can, Malen, Reus, Brandt – Haller
Player to Watch – Julian Brandt
Schemer Julian Brandt was at his creative best for Dortmund last week. The wide attacker played a game-high six key passes against Koln and on another day he would have had a glut of assists. The 27-year-old could pass holes in the Bochum defence this weekend.
