Borussia Dortmund continues to have several difficulties this season and in the last game it lost away from home against Schalke 04 by 2-0. In the case of a victory in this match against Leverkusen, Dortmund rises to the third position in the German championship. Usually we can see that coach Peter Stöger organizes his team in the classic 4-3-3 and privileges the attacks organized mainly through the runners: Philipp and Pusilic are excellent at transporting the ball for the attack. Note that the locals have several failures in finishing and attack-defense transition. For this game there are some absences per injury: Warrior, Kagawa, Batshuayi, Durm and Rode.

Confirmed Lineup: Roman Bürki, Łukasz Piszczek, Manuel Akanji, Ömer Toprak, Sokratis, Jadon Sancho, Julian Weigl, Mario Götze, Christian Pulišić, Maximilian Philipp, Marco Reus.

In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against RB Leipzig, by (1‑4). In the last match, they won in a home match against Eintracht Frankfurt, by (4‑1).
