With the late kick-off time at 7:30 p.m., Borussia Dortmund and VfL Wolfsburg will conclude the fourth matchday of the Bundesliga. In the sold-out Signal Iduna Park, BVB aims to further improve its extremely positive home record against this opponent. They will likely attempt this with the following lineup in the starting eleven.
Dortmund is still missing a considerable group of players who have suffered long-term injuries.
Compared to the 4:4 at Juventus Turin in the Champions League, Kicker expects “a bit of rotation.” This could lead to the following starting lineup for BVB:
Gregor Kobel – Julian Ryerson, Waldemar Anton, Ramy Bensebaini – Yan Couto, Pascal Groß, Felix Nmecha, Daniel Svensson – Julian Brandt, Maximilian Beier – Serhou Guirassy
However, the specialist magazine notes that Jobe Bellingham, Aaron Anselmino, or Carney Chukwuemeka could also make it into the starting eleven.

VfL Wolfsburg, which traditionally is something of a wildcard in the Bundesliga, remains unbeaten. Two draws and one win currently put them in 10th place. The new coach, Paul Simonis, will have to do without the following players:
Once again, Kicker predicts the following starting eleven for the visitors at Signal Iduna Park:
Kamil Grabara – Kilian Fischer, Moritz Jenz, Konstantinos Koulierakis, Aaron Zehnter – Maximilian Arnold, Vinicius Souza – Andreas Skov Olsen, Lovro Majer, Patrick Wimmer – Mohammed Amoura
The high-profile new signing at VfL Wolfsburg, Christian Eriksen, will therefore not be used, at least not from the start.
Of course, Borussia Dortmund is considered the clear favorite by the bookmakers. BVB has won its last seven home games in a row with an incredible goal difference of 24:1. The odds for a home win are mostly at 1.55. Those for a VfL Wolfsburg victory range between 5.00 and 5.35.
BVB won the last home game against the “Wolves” 4:0. They were also victorious away, winning 3:1 in the Autostadt. However, in the DFB-Pokal, they had to bow out at the same venue in the second round after a 0:1 defeat in extra time.
