Leipzig suffered a shocking 2-1 loss at the hands of bottom of the table Cologne in their last league game and they would be looking to bounce back quickly here.<\/p>\n
That loss was the first time they have lost back-to-back Bundesliga games since May last year and takes them to the sixth position on the league table.<\/p>\n
However, they are just one point off 4th placed Eintracht Frankfurt.<\/p>\n
They have taken just 10 points from 7 league games this year, winning 3 and losing the same amount.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 They would be boosted by news that Naby Keita is set to return after missing the last two games through injury, while Timo Werner is also expected to be back in the starting line up after being named in as a substitute the last time.<\/p>\n
Marco Reus’ return has helped Dortmund so far and he netted their goal in a disappointing 1-1 draw against Augsburg the last time. That was his second goal in the 3 games he has played since a long-term injury layoff.<\/p>\n
That draw made Peter Stoeger the first Dortmund manager to have avoided defeat in his first 9 league games, and the Austrian would be asking his players to keep the record intact for a longer period of time.<\/p>\n
