Team News: Marco Reus returns to Borussia Dortmund's lineup for Hamburger SV clash

Marco Reus returns to Borussia Dortmund's starting lineup for their away clash against Hamburger SV.

Marco Reus has returned to Borussia Dortmund's starting lineup for this evening's Bundesliga away clash against Hamburger SV.

The German was an initial doubt after tearing a muscle in Dortmund's 4-0 win over Qabala in the Europa League a fortnight ago.

However, Thomas Tuchel has deemed his star player fit enough to play in tonight's match, while Japan international Shinji Kagawa has also been given the nod, despite travelling the furthest during the international break.

As expected, Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, who has been linked with numerous clubs, including Premier League establishments, will lead the line for the visitors, but there is only a spot on the bench for Adnan Januzaj.

Meanwhile, Gotoku Sakai has replaced Dennis Diekmeier at right-back for Hamburg, while Emir Spahic and Johan Djourou will form a central defensive partnership.

Gideon Jung, Gojko Kacar and Lewis Holtby have been handed spots in midfield, leaving Pierre-Michel Lasogga and Ivo Ilicevic to lead the attacking threat.

Hamburger SV: Adler; Sakai, Spahic, Djourou, Ostrzolek; Jung, Kacar, Holtby; Muller, Lasogga, Ilicevic
Subs: Schipplock, Diaz, Gregoritsch, Stieber, Olic, Drobny, Cleber

Borussia Dortmund: Burki; Ginter, Sokratis, Hummels, Schmelzer; Gundogan, Weigl; Reus, Kagawa, Mkhitaryan; Aubameyang
Subs: Weidenfeller, Piszczek, Bender, Subotic, Hofmann, Castro, Januzaj
