BVB are on a three-game winning sequence in the Bundesliga for the first time this season.
It places Edin Terzic's team fourth after 13 matchdays, just three points back from leaders Bayern Munich. Moukoko should continue to lead the line but Reyna could make way for Karim Adeyemi or Marco Reus considering the young American has only just returned from injury.

The England international is one of seven outfield players yet to miss a minute in the Bundesliga this season.
These matches are also known as the “German Classico”. The two clubs have won 21 of the past 24 Bundesliga titles making them the biggest German clubs of all time.

LatestClick here for the Wolfsburg vs. Dortmund LIVE blog! After collecting one win from their first seven matches, the Wolves are now motoring in the right direction. Their 3-0 win at Mainz last time out was their second in succession, and one that lifted Niko Kovac's side into 11th place having previously occupied a relegation play-off place as recently as Matchday 8. Maxi Arnold, Ridle Baku and Patrick Wimmer were the goalscorers against the 05ers, while they kept a clean sheet at the other end for a second game on the bounce.
