For Dortmund, England's Jude Bellingham will be looking to show what he can do ahead of a likely summer move to Liverpool, Man utd or Real Madrid.
Cancer-beating ex-West Ham star Sebastien Haller is likely to step in in the Germany star's place. Chelsea will be hoping to put an end to a wretched run of two wins in 13 games, with goals proving the main issue for Potter. On-loan Atletico Madrid man Joao Felix opened his account at West Ham and some incisive attacking play will be required of him and £97million-man Mykhailo Mudryk. It remains to be seen whether Marc Cucurella will remain in the Chelsea side after getting booed off by his own fans at West Ham.
And for Chelsea, the Premier League's most expensive ever signing Enzo Fernandez will be looking to show why the Blues splashed out £107m on him. In contrast to mid-table Chelsea, Dortmund are still very much in their domestic title race. They sit three points behind leaders Bayern and two behind surprise package Union Berlin. In the Dortmund midfield, the youth of Bellingham is set to be partnered by veteran and club legend Marco Reus as well as ex-Liverpool star Emre Can. Up front, Chelsea will not have to worry about wonderkid Youssoufa Moukoko as he has been ruled out for up to two months with an ankle injury.
