Bundesliga 2025-2026: Borussia Dortmund-Freiburg, the likely lineups

Borussia Dortmund and Freiburg take the field at 5:30 p.m. for the match valid for the 31st day of the Bundesliga. The yellow-and-whites need to restart after two losses in a row to Leverkusen and Hoffenheim to secure their second position in the standings, while the guests are still battling with Eintracht Frankfurt for a place in the Conference League.

Kovac must do without Adeyemi and Guirassy, in attack there is Silva supported by Beier and Brandt. On the flanks there is space for Ryerson and Svensson, in midfield Bellingham along with Sabitzer.

Freiburg has its mind on next Thursday’s Europa League engagement and could opt for a reduced turnover. Holer up front and the line of trequartists will consist of Beste, Suzuki and Grifo. On the flanks Kubler and Gunter, while the midfielders will be Eggestein and Manzambi.
