Borussia Dortmund XI vs Bayern Munich – Predicted lineup and team news
Story updated
The story in brief
11-second readBorussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich—the Bundesliga’s leading two sides—meet at the Allianz Arena on Saturday in Der Klassiker, with victory enough for either club to stay at the top of the table Borussia Dortmund travel to Munich level with Bayern
From the source
Borussia Dortmund travel to Munich level with Bayern on 17 points, boosted by a remarkable run of nine matches without defeat that began last season.
Under Niko Kovač, their strength has been defensive discipline: they have conceded only four goals in seven league games, the best record in Europe. Their recent form has become a little less convincing, with several narrow one-goal wins, but they continue to get results.
They beat Eintracht Frankfurt 1-0 in the Bundesliga before edging Werder Bremen 3-2 in Tuesday’s dramatic DFB-Pokal encounter. Dortmund, led by Niko Kovač, arrive at the Allianz Arena with a strong defensive unit but must cope with several key absences.
