Team News
Borussia Dortmund defender Mats Hummels is set for a recall to tonight's squad to face Malaga in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals after sitting out the weekend win over FC Augsburg. However, Polish winger Jakub Blaszczykowski is set to miss out with Kevin Grosskreutz his likely depute. Sven Bender is expected to get the nod over Sebastian Kehl in midfield, and will line up alongside Ilkay Gundogan. Malaga will be without midfielders Manuel Iturra and Welington, who each serve one-match suspensions tonight. Impressive young play-maker Isco is fit, however, and is expected to line up alongside Jeremy Toulalan, Joaquin and former Real Madrid man Julio Baptista in midfield. Javier Saviola will lead the line up front.
