The first Revierderby of the Bundesliga season is here, and Jurgen Klopp has decided to throw everyone a nice little curveball. Both Kevin Grosskreutz and Shinji Kagawa will surprisingly start on the bench for Borussia Dortmund. 'Kuba' Jakub Blaszczykowski will start on the wing, while Robert Lewandowski will play as a withdrawn striker/attacking midfielder behind Lucas Barrios. Young Moritz Leitner starts in midfield in place of the injured Sven Bender. Schalke 04's team features no surprises. Here are the lineups.
