They replace Nico Schlotterbeck, who is being rested for workload management, along with Felix Nmecha, Marcel Sabitzer, Ethan Nwaneri and Serhou Guirassy, who will begin on the bench.<\/p>\n<p><b>BVB: <\/b>Kobel, Inacio, Silva, Karetsas, Anton, Beier, Bensebaini, Veerman, Bellingham, Gadou, Svensson&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>+++ Where the match is played +++<\/h2>\n<p>A football stage north of the Arctic Circle: the Aspmyra Stadium in the coastal city of Bodø seats 8,270 spectators. Around 400 tickets went to BVB fans. &quot;Aspmyra&quot; translates to &quot;aspen moor.&quot; The name combines &quot;asp&quot; (aspen) and &quot;myra&quot; (moor or swamp) and refers to the site on which the stadium was built. It opened in 1966. It originally had a running track, but was later converted into a pure football stadium. Today, its compact design and the closeness of the fans to the action define the stadium's character. The pitch is artificial turf, which allows matches to be played even in the harsh climate of northern Norway.<\/p>\n<h2>+++ Impressions from the Arctic Circle +++<\/h2>\n<p>Bodø lies on the coast of northern Norway, just north of the Arctic Circle, and is the capital of the county of Nordland. The city has around 43,000 residents and is an important economic, cultural, and transport hub for the region. It is known for its dramatic coastal scenery, the midnight sun in summer, the northern lights in winter, and the nearby Saltstraumen, one of the strongest tidal currents in the world..<\/p>\n<h2>+++ Referees from Switzerland +++<\/h2>\n<p>The referee is Urs Schnyder. He is assisted by Marco Zürcher and Benjamin Zürcher. The fourth official is Sven Wolfensberger. Fedayi San serves as the video assistant referee.<\/p>\n<h2>+++ U19 takes the lead +++<\/h2>\n<p>The black-and-yellow U19 has already done its job: in the second matchday of the UEFA Youth League, also at the Aspmyra Stadium, they beat Bodø/Glimt's youth side 5-0. With this convincing 5-0 win, the team keeps its chances of qualifying for the round of 32 alive. Bjarki Gardarsson scored a brace, and Justin Hoy and Luke Fahrenhorst (both from the penalty spot) and Tim Degener also scored for a strong-performing BVB.<\/p>\n<h2>+++ Activation at the hotel +++<\/h2>\n<p>Maxi Beier gazes out over the sea, which lies directly in front of the hotel. It's cold and windy outside, but inside the temperature is rising. On Wednesday morning, the BVB professionals are preparing for the evening match against Bodø/Glimt. As usual, football tennis is played with full commitment, while the other group does stretching exercises.<\/p>\n<h2>+++ Kits in black and yellow +++<\/h2>\n<p>Both clubs' colors are black and yellow. Since the home team has opted for an all-yellow kit, Borussia Dortmund will play in black: shirts, shorts, and socks.<\/p>\n<h2>+++ God morgen fra Norge! +++<\/h2>\n<p>Today the ball rolls! Before the Borussen face Bodø/Glimt, they will complete an activation session at the hotel in the morning. Later, they head to the Aspmyra Stadium, where kick-off is at 9 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>The weather forecast for today: temperatures are expected to reach up to nine degrees Celsius. The wind was already whistling around the ears yesterday, and there is another wind warning today.

Despite a few lineup changes, the lads never lost their rhythm and continued to push the pace against the now-overwhelmed hosts. Tim Degener capitalized on a pass from Till Burkhardt in the 79th minute to make it 4\u20130.
