The 141st Der Klassiker is scheduled between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, a fixture known for featuring talented players and intense rivalry, according to BVB Buzz. The rivalry is considered the most historic in German football. Many incredibly talented players have participated in this fixture.

Robert Lewandowski scored for Dortmund before joining Bayern Munich, facing them 14 times between 2010 and 2014. He scored once in eight Bundesliga meetings and had a notable hat-trick in the 2012 DFB-Pokal final. Erling Haaland also scored in the Der Klassiker, managing the same number of goals as Lewandowski but in fewer matches, as reported by BVB Buzz.

Other notable Dortmund players who have scored against Bayern include Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang with six goals, Lothar Emmerich with eight goals from eight league matches, and Marco Reus who came close to scoring double-digit goals. Aubameyang's goals helped Dortmund win cup games and the Supercup, as detailed by BVB Buzz.

Source context

Borussia Dortmund face off with their biggest rivals Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga tomorrow as Germany's most elite sides lock horns in the 141st Der Klassiker in history. The fixture has almost never failed to deliver, with many incredibly talented players gracing the most historic rivalry in German football. While Bayern have always boasted some of the best forwards, Dortmund have had their fare share of prolific goalscorers who have found the net in the Klassiker. Robert Lewandowski was so used to scoring against Borussia Dortmund during his eight-year spell with Bayern Munich that it's easy to forget he scored for the opposite side in the Der Klassiker before that too.
