Borussia Dortmund Team News
For the visitors, Haaland is still sidelined for at least a few weeks, so Donyell Malen will continue to lead the line after scoring his second and third goals for the club in the last two games.
After injuring a muscle in the build-up to their Champions League loss last week, Raphael Guerreiro appears poised to miss more time, which means Nico Schulz will continue to play on the left side of defence.
To match the Wolves, Rose may alter from a 4-2-3-1 to a three-man defence, allowing Mats Hummels to return to the back line after missing the midweek meeting due to suspension.
The rest of Dortmund’s injury list includes Roman Burki, Mateu Morey, Marcel Schmelzer, Marius Wolf, Giovanni Reyna, Thorgan Hazard, and Youssoufa Moukoko.
Wolfsburg Team News
On Saturday, Kohfeldt and Wolfsburg will welcome back two of their three-man back line, with Maxence Lacroix returning from a two-match suspension and Josuha Guilavogui bouncing back from a recent injury to partner John Brooks.
However, behind them will be second-choice goalkeeper Pavao Pervan, with first-choice Koen Casteels out for at least another week due to COVID-19.
William, Xaver Schlager, and Bartosz Bialek, all long-term absentees, are still on the sidelines, as is Renato Steffen, who is out with a calf injury.

Wolfsburg XI: Pervan; Lacroix, Guilavogui, Brooks; Baku, Vrancx, Arnold, Roussillon; Gerhardt, Weghorst, L Nmecha
Borussia Dortmund XI: Kobel; Akanji, Hummels, Pongracic; Meunier, Bellingham, Witsel, Schulz; Reus, Malen, Brandt
