Analysis
Borussia Dortmund's problems begun when their top players came down with injuries. As of now, Thomas Tuchel may be forced to leave up to eight players out of his squad, considering that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and André Schürrle are injury doubts. Emre Mor is out due after picking up a red card last week, and the absences of Marcel Schmelzer & Raphael Guerreiro will be complicated to deal with for the German boss.
On the other side of the pitch, Markus Weinzierl's team will make a run for their third win in four games, which saw them leave the last three spots of the Bundesliga last week. Saturday's match won't be easy for Die Knappen, as Breel Embolo, Coke and Atsuto Uchida will be out due to injury.
