DFB Cup - Terzic puts Dortmund's star trio on the bench in Stuttgart
Coach Edin Terzic has made three changes to Borussia Dortmund's starting eleven for the DFB Cup round of 16 at VfB Stuttgart on Wednesday (20:45/ZDF and Sky). Former captain Marco Reus and internationals Julian Brandt and Niclas Füllkrug will initially be on the bench three days after BVB's 1:1 draw in the Bundesliga at Bayer Leverkusen. The trio are replaced by Karim Adeyemi, Youssoufa Moukoko and Salih Özcan.
At VfB, the in-form goalscorers Serhou Guirassy and Deniz Undav once again form a front two. Winger Josha Vagnoman is in the starting line-up for the first time this season, pushing Pascal Stenzel to the bench. In the league, Stuttgart won 2:1 against Dortmund three and a half weeks ago.
