Predicted Borussia Dortmund XI vs Union Berlin – Karim Adeyemi to return

Edin Terzic will have close to a fully fit squad as Borussia Dortmund host Union Berlin as they look to bounce back after their consecutive loses to Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig. 

The only certain absentees from the squad will be Nico Schlotterbeck who is suffering from a thigh injury sustained when away with Germany but had been re-aggravated against Bayern Munich last weekend while January signing Julian Duranville will also be absent. 

There are question marks surrounding Sébastien Haller who missed the game against Leipzig with a knee injury. The 28-year-old trained individually on Thursday but is expected to be in the final training session before the game. The same can be said for Thomas Meunier who also trained individually on Thursday. 

Karim Adeyemi missed the game in midweek through suspension but he is expected to make his return, which is likely off the bench for Dortmund. 

For Union, the only likely absentee will be András Schäfer while Frederick Rønnow could make his return in goal.
