Borussia Dortmund goes into the duel with 1. FC Köln without regular keeper Gregor Kobel and midfielder Salih Özcan. The sick duo is missing from the squad of the Bundesliga soccer team for the game this Saturday (6.30 p.m. / Sky) in Signal Iduna Park, which was sold out with 81,365 spectators. On the other hand, BVB coach Edin Terzic can count on captain Marco Reus, who has recovered from an infection, and is in the starting lineup. As expected, the game came too early for national players Julian Brandt and Karim Adeyemi.
In the case of Cologne, the last sick substitute keeper Timo Horn is in the squad. Luca Kilian, Kristian Pedersen and Jan Thielmann are still unavailable. On the other hand, the U19 player Damion Downs is part of the squad, but initially sits on the bench.
