Photos posted on the club's official Twitter account this afternoon showed Jurgen Klopp's side braving the foggy conditions for a 'pre-warm up' at the Royal Park.
Borussia are top of Group D with 12 points and have already qualified for the knockout round.
Victory at the Emirates tonight will ensure that they progress as group winners, which would secure the German side a second-round tie with a group runner-up.
Arsenal, who lost 2-1 to Manchester United on Saturday, can guarantee their own qualification with a win tonight.
When the sides met in September, Borussia swept the Gunners aside as Ciro Immobile and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored in a 2-0 victory at the Westfalenstadion.
For those wanting to emulate Dortmund's star-studded squad, the nine football pitches at Regent's Park can be hired for £60.00 each.
