Rock bottom of the table and needing seven points to escape the relegation zone, Darmstadt are struggling to keep afloat. Having lost 10 of their last 11 league games, Lilies' coach Torsten Frings - appointed during the winter break - will be hoping to put some much-needed points on the board against his former club.

Head to the Match Centre for more on this fixture.

Having taken three points from RB Leipzig last weekend, BVB will be looking to keep their unbeaten run of seven matches intact. After winning 6-0 against Die Lilien in the reverse fixture, will we see a repeat performance with the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Ousmane Dembele and Marco Reus all at full fitness?
