Moukoko once more
It's a fourth for BVB. Another fine move ends with subs Reyna freeing Bynoe-Gittens. His cross to the far post is angled in by Moukoko, who also scored after coming on as a replacement last weekend.

Magic Maatsen
What a game Ian Maatsen has had here. As well as his assist for Dortmund's last goal, the Chelsea loanee has successfully completed 100 per cent of his passes under pressure.

Sancho praise
Prior to his substitution, Jadon Sancho made 31 sprints in this game, more than any other player.

BVB home free
Brilliant from Ian Maatsen, who wins possession and sends a sumptuous, long, cross-field pass right into the path of Malen. The Dutch forward closes on goalkeeper Schwäbe before picking his spot in the corner.
58'
Dortmund double lead
Niclas Füllkrug gives goalkeeper Marvin Schwäbe the eyes and sends the Cologne custodian the wrong way with a calmly struck penalty. BVB have daylight between themselves and their opponents.

Penalty BVB!
Jadon Sancho turns Carstensen inside out inside the Cologne area and the full back is forced to stretch out a hand and tug the Englishman back. Down goes Sancho, penalty BVB.

Off the post
It looks like Füllkrug is going to be pulled up for a foul but play is allowed to continue and Maina smashes a superb shot over the diving Kobel and against the upright! What's worse for the hosts is that Rasmus Carstensen is there to pick up the loose ball but he can only skew wide with the goal at his mercy. A let off for BVB.
47'
Billy-Goats go close
Suddenly Cologne are in! Jan Thielmann latches onto the through ball and only has Kobel to beat. The keeper makes a super stop while Thielmann can only poke wide from a tight angle with his follow up. Big chance.

Hendry Blank is on for Niklas Süle at the break.

Half-time: Cologne 0-1 Dortmund
We've reached the break at the RheinEnergieStadion where Borussia Dortmund lead thanks to a cleverly-worked Donyell Malen goal. Cologne are still very much in this contest, however, with Timo Schultz's side enjoying decent spells of possession.

Max Finkgräfe has been Cologne's best player so far. The full back wins a corner of Meunier, which Kainz takes. Füllkrug deflects that one out at the near post.

Almost 2-0
BVB should probably be two up here. Super work from Meunier as he exchanges passes with Malen before entering the area and crossing right in front of Schwäbe. Füllkrug is there but a combination of Timo Hübers and his keeper mean the big Germany international is denied a goal.

BVB almost caught out
Maina races on to a long ball over the top and suddenly Kobel is racing off his line! Meunier and his goalkeeper almost make a mess of the clearance but they manage to retrieve the situation with Cologne's No. 37 closing down.

Meunier booked
Linton Maina looks to get on his bike as Cologne counter. Maina is dragged to the floor by Thomas Meunier and that's a booking for the Dortmund man.

Strong Kobel
Florian Kainz whips one into the Dortmund box. Kobel is watching this all the way and comes out to claim spectacularly.

Cologne hymn
The Cologne anthem fills the air and the teams make their way out onto the pitch. We're all set to go!
Teams in tunnel!
Superb atmosphere at the RheinEnergieStadion as the stadium announcer booms out the starting line-ups. The players are gathering in the tunnel.
Standings tell a tale
We're not long away from the start of what is a pretty huge game for both of these sides, particularly when you look at the table. Although BVB won last weekend, Edin Terzic's side have dropped nine of the last 15 possible points and are currently fifth, 15 points off leaders Bayer Leverkusen. Cologne, meanwhile, are second from bottom with just two wins all campaign. What a difference a victory would make to either side here.

Ljubičić's Cologne role
FCK's top scorer Davie Selke is sidelined with an injury, meaning Dejan Ljubičić replaces the birthday boy up top. Elsewhere, Timo Schultz goes with the remaining 10 players that began last weekend's 1-1 draw against Heidenheim.
It's Sancho time!

BVB's results conundrum
Interestingly, Dortmund have taken a 1-0 lead in each of their last three guest games in Cologne, but the Black-and-Yellows failed to win any of those contests. Visiting coach Terzic, meanwhile, has never won a game at the home of today's hosts: one draw, one defeat.

Dortmund double act
Sancho and Marco Reus combined for their 14th goal in BVB's win in Darmstadt, where both had come off the bench. That means Dortmund have eight goals from substitutes this season, while Cologne have none.
