Borussia Dortmund host Hoffenheim in the closing fixture of matchday 13 in the Bundesliga. Niko Kovac’s side were eliminated from the cup with a home defeat to Bayer Leverkusen in midweek. Hoffenheim sit fifth in the standings as they only trail their guests by two points.
Apart from the long-time absentee Niklas Süle, Dortmund have no injury worries, but Kovac makes more changes to his team with one eye on another midweek fixture. Dortmund will have a third consecutive home game on Wednesday with Champions League debutant Bodø/Glimt visiting Westfalenstadion.
Christian Ilzer makes no change from the starting lineup of matchday 12 as talismanic striker Andrej Kramaric and Germany U21 international Muhammed Damar are on the bench. Adam Hlozek is part of the squad for the first time as he returns to full fitness.
