Team News: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is rested, Adnan Januzaj starts for Borussia Dortmund

Aubameyang rested, Januzaj starts for Dortmund

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been rested by Borussia Dortmund, but Adnan Januzaj is handed a start for tonight's Europa League clash against PAOK in Germany.

The club have already qualified for the last 32 of the competition, so head coach Tomas Tuchel can afford to rest some of his top stars, but he has opted to include Marco Reus in the starting XI.

Mats Hummels, who missed the weekend's game with a stomach bug, returns to the lineup, while Neven Subotic, who has been linked with Liverpool, also gets the nod in defence.

Ilkay Gundogan missed training on Wednesday due to a knock in his lower back and therefore has been ruled out of the squad this evening.

Meanwhile, former Premier League striker Dimitar Berbatov will lead the line for PAOK after recovering from a calf injury.

Borussia Dortmund: Weidenfeller; Ginter, Subotic, Hummels, Park; Stenzel, Bender; Kagawa, Reus, Januzaj; Ramos Subs: Burki, Papastathopoulos, Weigl, J. Hofmann, Mkhitaryan, Leitner, Aubameyang

PAOK: Glykos; Skondras, Malezas, Konstantinidis, Tzavellas; Tziolis, Mak, Cimirot, Kace; Mystakidis, Berbatov Subs: Olsen, Leovac, Rodrigues, Sabo, Pelkas, Antonis, Athanasiadis
