St.Pauli and Borussia Dortmund kick off their 2025/26 Bundesliga campaigns at the Millerntor-Stadion this evening in Hamburg.
With around an hour to go before kickoff, the confirmed St.Pauli vs Borussia Dortmund lineups have been announced - and you can find the official starting XIs below.
St.Pauli have gone with a strong lineup, albeit the loss of David Nemeth is a blow with Dzwigala in to replace him. There's many a German topflight debut for the Kiezkickers with Hountondji and Pereira Lage to make just two.
Dortmund set up with one change to the team from their DfB-Pokal win over Rot-Weiss Essen with Jobe Bellingham in to make his Bundesliga debut. Meanwhile, Yan Couto recovered from an injury scare to start.
St.Pauli starting XI (3-4-1-2): Vasilj - Wahl, Smith, Dzwigala - Pyrka, Sands, Fujita, Oppie - Sinani - Hountondji, Pereira Lage
Bor. Dortmund starting XI (3-4-1-2): Kobel - Mané, Anton, Bensebaini - Couto, Groß, Sabitzer, Svensson - Jobe - Guirassy Adeyemi
