From the source
Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, the top two teams in the Bundesliga, both with 17 points from seven matches, face each other at the Allianz Arena on Saturday, as a win for either team will keep them in the top spot.
Bayern Munich enters Der Klassiker with assistant coach Aaron Danks managing the touchline as Vincent Kompany continues recovering from his hospitalisation. The league leaders face significant squad disruptions, most notably the absence of club captain Manuel Neuer due to persistent foot discomfort, leaving Jonas Urbig to start in goal.
Furthermore, the creative core is heavily depleted; Jamal Musiala remains sidelined with a hamstring strain that rules him out of this match and the upcoming Champions League clash with Atlético Madrid.
