The Norwegian striker might be able to make his return on Saturday after he missed Dortmund's 6-1 win over Paderborn with a knee problem.
"Erling Haaland started training with the team again today. We will see," said Borussia Dortmund coach Lucien Favre at the pre-match press conference, at which he also provided an update on club captain Marco Reus, who is still recovering from a muscle injury:
"Marco Reus hasn't returned to team training yet. He has started worked with the ball, but only individually."
Favre was tight-lipped on how he plans to replace Mats Hummels, who will be serving a one-match ban after he picked up his fifth yellow card of the season against Paderborn.
"The loss of Mats Hummels is a pity. We'll see how we play. That's all I can say," he said.
