INDIA FANTASY PREDICTION:

Despite winning three league matches in a row and progressing to the next round of the Europa League, Borussia Dortmund still struggle to find the right balance in their approach. They are too dependent on individual quality in the final third right now, but should improve in possession soon, if everyone stays fit.

Augsburg has lost back-to-back matches and have only picked up a single point from their last four away games. They miss top-scorer Alfred Finnbogason up front, but will hope to find other ways to score against a potentially fatigued home side.

Expect this to be an open game from the outset, with several chances at both ends of the pitch.
