Borussia Dortmund face Juventus as they travel to Turin on Tuesday evening. Both sides begin their quest for Champions League glory and look to impress from the outset in this crucial group stage encounter.
Borussia Dortmund will travel to Italy without several notable players. Club captain Emre Can is sidelined by a groin issue, and key defenders Nico Schlotterbeck (knee) and Niklas Süle (calf) remain absent as they continue their recovery from extended injuries.
Fábio Silva is also ruled out with a groin injury, which places goal-scoring responsibilities squarely on Serhou Guirassy. Guirassy made headlines last season, topping the Champions League scoring charts with 13 goals and maintaining his fine run with five goals from four matches this term.
Julien Duranville is another player who will miss out due to a shoulder injury. Nevertheless, Dortmund are boosted by the anticipated returns of Julian Brandt and Aarón Anselmino, both of whom were unavailable for the recent 2-0 Bundesliga win against Heidenheim but are expected to feature in Turin.
Borussia Dortmund Predicted XI: Kobel; Anselmino, Anton, Bensebaini; Couto, Sabitzer, Bellingham, Svensson; Brandt, Beier; Guirassy.
8pm BST, on Tuesday.
