Top picks:
Youssoufa Moukoko: The youngster will be leading the attack for Dortmund today and should be in all teams. He has scored six times this season and assisted thrice - leading both charts for the German club.
Julian Brandt: The German has done well this season, but has scored just three goals. He will be aiming to get more under his belt and make a late push to get into the World Cup squad.
