Good afternoon, welcome back to the start of another brand new Bundesliga season, where Borussia Dortmund kick their campaign off at home to Eintracht Frankfurt. I'm Oli Gent, and follow my live text commentary right here on Eurosport for every goal and slice of action this game will surely have to offer, with kick off at 5.30pm BST.

Dortmund: Kobel, Passlack, Akanji, Witsel, Schulz, Dahoud, Bellingham, Reyna, Reus, Hazard, Haaland.

Here are the teams once more, just in case you've joined us late...

Stefan Ilsanker will presumaby be the anchor screening the Frankfurt backline, and he will be the man tasked with following Marco Reus and shadowing him in the tight pockets of space between the lines.

First and foremost, we must consider how Frankfurt are to deal with the threat of Erling Haaland - they've got three central defenders there to marshal one striker - but when that one striker is arguably the best in Europe, there is still real cause for concern. Hinteregger in the centre of the defensive trident will be the one usually that follows the young Norwegian, but it'll be up to Ndicka predominantly to use his pace covering in behind his slower team-mate.

What will the key battles be out there today?

For Frankfurt, its a back three for them: Evan Ndicka partnering up with Martin Hinteregger and Hasebe, whilst Rafael Santos Borre gets his first start up front. Stefan Ilsanker will look to screen the defence with Messrs Sow and Barkok, with Filip Kostic and Danny da Costa providing the width from wing-back.

Dortmund start the new season in a 4-2-3-1 shape one would assume: Felix Passlack and Nico Schulz the full-backs, behind wide forwards Thorgan Hazard and Giovanni Reyna. Erling Haaland leads the line, in front of a midfield trio of Jude Bellingham and Mo Dahoud as the shuttlers, with Marco Reus as the ten. Manuel Akanji and Axel Witsel as it seems will play at centre-back.

Let's dissect these teams, shall we?
