DortmundScores twice vs. Villarreal

Analysis: Guirassy came through in the second half with Dortmund's second and third goals, though he also scored an own goal late in the second half when trying to clear away a cross from Nicolas Pepe. The star striker remains a dependable scoring force in an attack-minded team, and his regular involvement on offense, along with his high shot totals, give him a solid floor in most slates. Between the Bundesliga and the UCL opener, Guirassy has four goals on 13 shots (seven on target), one assist and five chances created in just three matches.

Nets on only shot
Guirassy scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Friday's 3-2 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt.
Analysis: Guirassy took only one shot during Friday's win, but it was all he needed to score a decisive goal during the 3-2 win.

This goal moves him up to 16 on the campaign, with three in the last four matches.

Starting Sunday
Guirassy (concussion) is in the starting XI for Sunday's clash with Freiburg.
Analysis: Guirassy is back in the starting XI for Sunday's clash after overcoming a concussion. He trained on Friday but was still a major doubt for Sunday's clash. It turns out that was too pessimistic as he's now back fit and starting. Fabio Silva is on the bench with Guirassy starting.
Trains Friday, still doubtful
Guirassy (concussion) returned to team training Friday but remains a doubt for Sunday's clash against Freiburg, according to coach Niko Kovac, per Ruhr 24.
Analysis: Guirassy had been unable to train before Friday after sustaining a concussion during Saturday's loss at Hoffenheim, where he remarkably powered through the knock to score the equalizer before being assessed by the medical staff. His return to the training pitch is a significant relief for Dortmund heading into the weekend, and the club will make a final call on his squad inclusion after the medical department signs off on his condition. Fabio Silva remains on standby if any last-minute concerns prevent Guirassy from being cleared.
Follows concussion protocols
Guirassy sustained a concussion during Saturday's 2-1 loss at Hoffenheim and has been unable to train since, leaving his availability for Sunday's clash against Freiburg very much in doubt, according to Sky Sports.
Analysis: Guirassy took a knock from Ozan Kabak in the 84th minute before remarkably going on to score the equalizer, but the concussion has prevented him from taking part in either of the two training sessions since the game. The club will make a final call on his squad inclusion later in the week after the medical department assesses his condition, with Fabio Silva the most likely candidate to lead the line if Guirassy cannot be cleared in time for Sunday's fixture.
