Headline: Dortmund Faces Gladbach on Anniversary Amidst Lineup Changes, Kicker Offers Ad-Free Option
Dortmund, Germany – Borussia Dortmund kicks off the 15th matchday of the Bundesliga at home against Borussia Mönchengladbach on the club’s 116th birthday. However, recent draws and injuries have dampened the mood, forcing coach Edin Terzić to shuffle the lineup.
Niklas Süle steps into the defense replacing Ramy Bensebaini, who is away at the Africa Cup. Julian Ryerson, Pascal Groß, Ole Pohlmann, Karim Adeyemi, and Julian Brandt also start.
Meanwhile, Gladbach, under the guidance of Eugen Polanski, looks to continue their positive momentum after a recent loss to Wolfsburg. Neuhaus and Scally return to the starting eleven.
Historically, Dortmund has dominated this fixture at home, winning 18 of the last 19 matches against Gladbach.
Starting Lineups:
- Dortmund: Kobel – Süle, Can, N. Schlotterbeck – Ryerson, P. Groß, F. Nmecha, Svensson, Adeyemi, Brandt – Guirassy
- Mönchengladbach: Nicolas – Sander, Elvedi, Diks – Scally, Reitz, Engelhardt, Netz, Reyna, Neuhaus – Tabakovic
