WATCH: REYNA: "WE DESERVED ANOTHER GOAL OR TWO"
90'
+ 4
SPOILS SHARED
A point apiece is probably fair on the overall balance of play, even if Dortmund will be frustrated not to have finished some good chances that would have kept the gap to leaders Bayern Munich at four points. Cologne stay in seventh, four points of the European places.

UTH FIRES WIDE
Uth receives the ball inside the Dortmund box, cuts onto his preferred left foot and shoots towards the far post... but it rolls wide of the upright.

FRESH LEGS
Malen replaces Hazard in attack in a bid to get all three points.

DORTMUND PUSHING
Cologne may have the home crowd on their side but it's Dortmund who are looking more likely to score again. Haaland is lurking on the shoulder of the last man and just needs one good pass. Will it come? Or will Cologne grab a winner?
74'
CHANCE FOR REYNA!
A brilliant run from Reyna to shrug off a couple of challenges and dribble from the middle of the pitch into the box. He's off to the right and could either shoot or cross into the middle, but delays too long and allows Thielmann time to recover and make a block. Reyna holds his head in his hands - he knows that was a great opportunity.
70'
HAALAND ALMOST IN
Brandt slots a nice pass into Bellingham's path inside the Cologne box. He squares it towards the onrushing Haaland, but Hübers slides in to just get there first!
68'
WIDE FROM HUMMELS
Hummels is first to Reyna's free-kick from the right, but he heads it well over.

ATTACKING CHANGE
BVB coach Marco Rose brings on Brandt for Guerreiro for the final 20 minutes or so, hoping to force the issue in the final third.

COLOGNE MUZZLED
The hosts haven't had a single shot at goal in the second half; the three efforts there have been have all come from Dortmund.

BIG CHANCE FOR HAALAND!
Reyna threads a lovely ball through to Haaland, who all of a sudden only has Schwäbe to beat. He's on his weaker right foot again though, and the goalkeeper makes the save.
53'
BREAK IN PLAY
Bellingham needs to change his boots after a hefty tackle with Özcan...
49'
COLOGNE ALMOST IN
Can fouls Schaub about 35 yards from goal. Duda floats the resulting free-kick into the box and Akanji tries to let it roll out of play, unaware that Özcan was arriving behind him. He tries to cross it back into the middle, but Dortmund survive the scare and manage to clear.
46'
UNDER WAY AGAIN
Here we go! Cologne are unchanged but Dortmund have made one substitution at the interval, with Hummels coming on for Passlack. Can is likely to switch to right-back, with Hummels joining Akanji in central defence.
Kick-off!

NOTHING IN IT
Referee Daniel Siebert brings an end to the first half and Dortmund will likely be the happier of the two teams to go into the changing rooms in order to regroup. The visitors took the lead through Wolf's well-taken goal, but Cologne have otherwise been the better side, enjoying more possession and having more efforts on goal (seven to four), and deservedly levelled through Andersson.
Half-time
41'
OVER FROM ANDERSSON
Horn digs out another excellent cross from the left, this time to the back post. Andersson is first to it, but heads over from the edge of the six-yard box.
36'
COLOGNE EQUALISE!
It has been coming and finally Cologne get their reward. Jannes Horn curls a cross into the middle from the left, which Modeste flicks on at the near post for Andersson to tap in at the back post!

UTH HITS THE SIDE NETTING
Dortmund can't clear their lines after a Cologne cross into the middle and it comes to Uth, who skips past Akanji and gets a shot away but he can only find the side netting at the near post.
25'
JUST WIDE FROM HAALAND
It's the first chance of the game for the Norwegian and he goes very close to getting his side's second. After out-muscling his marker on the edge of the box he immediately gets a shot away with his weaker right foot, but it rolls just wide of the far post.
21'
MODESTE A WHISKER AWAY
Uth smashes the ball across the face of goal from a tight angle near the corner flag on the left. Modeste is racing to meet it in the middle but can't quite get there, and it rolls out of play.
18'
HOPE FOR COLOGNE
The Billy Goats have earned at least a point after falling behind in seven Bundesliga matches this season, fighting back to win three times, and draw four. Only Hoffenheim have done so more frequently (nine games) in Germany's top flight this term.

HOW WILL COLOGNE RESPOND?
That's two early setbacks for the hosts, with the goal and then losing Schmitz's attacking instincts on the right. Will they be able to find a way back?
10'
EARLY CHANGE FOR COLOGNE
Right-back Schmitz limps off with what looks like an injury to his right hamstring. He's replaced by Ehizibue.

WOLF AGAIN!
After scoring the only goal of the game in Dortmund's win over Bielefeld last week, Wolf is on the scoresheet again! Bellingham pings a brilliant diagonal pass from the back, and Wolf darts in behind Hübers to control it with his right and tuck a left-footed shot past Schwäbe!
7'
GUERREIRO AGAIN!
A corner from the right comes to Guerreiro, who's lurking just outside the box. He strikes it well first-time, but his swerving effort is well saved by Schwäbe.
4'
FIRST FLIMPSE FOR MODESTE
The Cologne striker gets his head to a cross from the right, but he's surrounded by defenders and can't get much power on it as his header bobbles wide.

SPECULATIVE FROM GUERREIRO
The Portuguese lets fly with an ambitious shot from 35 yards out, but it's always rising and sails well over the target.

AND WE'RE OFF!
Cologne get the ball rolling in the final fixture of Matchday 27!
Kick-off!
A CLASSIC FIXTURE
This is the 92nd time Cologne and Dortmund meet in the Bundesliga. The league’s inaugural champions may have lost the last encounter but actually dominated the hosts, finishing with 20 shots to BVB’s eight. But Borussia – the last champions of Germany prior to the Bundesliga and five-time winners since – have a good recent record in Cologne, winning two and drawing two of the last four.

DORTMUND TEAM NEWS
Marco Rose also makes three changes after Dortmund’s 1-0 win at Mainz on Wednesday. Gio Reyna and Erling Haaland both come in after their substitute appearances over the last two games, while Manuel Akanji returns in central defence in place of Marin Pongracic. Donyell Malen and the suspended Mo Dahoud drop out. Raphael Guerreiro and Mats Hummels are back among the subs.
COLOGNE TEAM NEWS
Steffen Baumgart makes three changes to the team that beat Leverkusen in the derby last weekend. All are enforced, with Hector, Kainz and Skhiri all unavailable. Uth, Schaub and Jannes Horn come into what is a very attacking team – very much in Baumgart’s style.
