(London, GBR) - Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich both named their expected line-ups for Saturday's first ever all-German Champions League final at Wembley Stadium.
Dortmund already knew they were going to be without playmaker Mario Gotze, who is scheduled to join Bayern at the end of the season, due to a hamstring injury.
However, former Bayern player Mats Hummels overcame an ankle injury sustained in last weekend's 2-1 defeat by Hoffenheim to start alongside Neven Subotic at centre-back.
Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp is expected to deploy a 4-3-3 formation, with Kevin Grosskreutz moving infield from the left flank to stiffen the midfield.
Bayern made just one change from the team that completed a 7-0 aggregate win over Barcelona in the semi-finals, with Brazilian central defender Dante replacing Daniel Van Buyten,
In the absence of injured attacking midfielder Toni Kroos, lone striker Mario Mandzukic is supported by Arjen Robben, Franck Ribery and Thomas Mueller.
Bayern are bidding to win their fifth European Cup, following defeats in the final in 2010 and 2012, while Dortmund are appearing in their first final since winning the trophy for the only time in 1997.
