Can Borussia Dortmund finally get their first away win of the season in the Bundesliga when they take on Mainz 05 at the MEWA Arena on Saturday?
Nuri Sahin and Borussia Dortmund go into Saturday's trip to Mainz 05 on the back of two straight wins. Despite their injury crisis, BVB have been able to find a way and get momentum back on side in their last two matches after three straight defeats.
But the Black and Yellows' form away from home has been woeful so far this season. And they will be eager to change that against a Mainz 05 side that has caused them a fair few problems in recent matches.
Borussia Dortmund's injury situation remains precarious heading into their final game before the November international break.
They will be relying on the free-scoring Serhou Guirassy to lead the way once again, with the striker making a number of vital contributions in attack since his summer move from Stuttgart. The in-form Felix Nmecha will also have a crucial role to play for Borussia Dortmund in midfield.
Mainz 05 forward Jonathan Burkardt will be one to watch for the Borussia Dortmund defence, having made a strong start to the season.
Borussia Dortmund's away game against Mainz 05 in the Bundesliga will be broadcast in the United States on ESPN+. Fans can watch the action live online on Sky Sport in Germany, and Sony LIV in India.
