In a must-win game for under-pressure Borussia Dortmund coach Nuri Sahin, the Black and Yellows travel to Bologna on Tuesday.
Dortmund suffered their third defeat in a row on Friday, losing 2-0 to Eintracht Frankfurt, and Tuesday's game will be crucial for Sahin's future, with a win needed to save his job.
"Nuri will be on the bench against Bologna, but of course - we all know that - with the clear expectation that all we need now is wins and a sense of achievement," said Borussia Dortmund managing director Lars Ricken after Friday's game.
The loss in Frankfurt saw Sahin's side slip to an unimpressive 10th place in the Bundesliga, but they're in an acceptable position in the Champions League, sitting ninth with 12 points from six games.
Bologna, meanwhile, have taken just two points from their opening six games in Europe's top club competition.
Meanwhile, Vincenzo Italiano's side are seventh in Serie A after ending a three-match winless run with a 3-1 win at Monza.
In terms of personnel, Michel Aebischer (thigh), Nicolo Cambiaghi (knee) and Oussama El Azzouzi (back) are out for the home side.
Dortmund will be without Niklas Süle (syndesmotic ligament rupture) and Ramy Bensebaini (suspended).
