The personnel situation is improving. Both Mario Götze und Jeremy Toljan will return from a 10-day injury layoff when Borussia Dortmund play host to Borussia Mönchengladbach at 18:30 CET this evening, while Marc Bartra (bench) is also in the squad.

There are five changes to the BVB starting XI that recorded a 3-0 victory over Hamburg on Wednesday evening, with Toljan, Weigl, Dahoud, Götze and Philipp replacing Zagadou, Sahin, Castro, Kagawa and Yarmolenko as the Black & Yellows prepare for their fifth game in 15 days. It will be Weigl's first start following a four-month injury layoff.

The line-up: Bürki – Piszczek, Sokratis, Toprak, Toljan – Weigl – Dahoud, Götze – Pulisic, Aubameyang, Philipp
