In Germany, there aren’t any bigger games than this. In fact, as the most-watched fixture in the country, it was dubbed ‘Der Klassiker’, - translating as ‘The Classic’. As avid football supporters, these are the kind of matches we live for.

Already neck-and-neck on the standings, even though it’s still early in the season, these two sides will be gunning for nothing but victory. Both tied on 15 points, whichever side emerges victorious from this one, will move clear at the league summit.

Borussia Dortmund vs Bayern Munich Team News

Last season, a host of clubs came really close to ending Bayern Munich’s monopoly of league title wins. In fact, there was a point in time where Bayer Leverkusen were at the top of the standings, and looking to peel away from the chasing pack.

As the season drew nearer to a close, Die Bayern took their rightful place at the top of the log, to leave Dortmund rotting in second-place. Der BVB ended the campaign with 69 points to their name, but were a whopping 13 points shy of champions Bayern.

This time around, the aim remains the same for Dortmund – to knock long-standing rivals Bayern Munich off their perch. So far, it is fair to say they are on the right track and haven’t put a foot wrong in their bid to bring the rounded silverware to the North Rhine-Westphalia district.

Favre’s men currently sit second on the standings, level on points with Bayern Munich but are trailing on goal difference. They haven’t been as prolific as their Munich counterparts. Last time out in the Bundesliga, Dortmund delivered a routine 2-0 win over Arminia.

Against the newly-promoted side, Die Borussen were always going to come out tops, and that was exactly how things played out. Surprisingly, the goals came through defender Mats Hummels who turned two crosses into the net.

Meanwhile, Bayern Munich are tearing it up in Germany once again, but are facing stiff competition from Dortmund for that top-spot. They will need a win in this fixture, to make that highly-coveted position completely theirs.

They were made to bend over backwards to see off struggling FC Koln on the last matchday, showing some second-half defensive masterclass to hold onto a 2-0 lead. Ultimately, the game ended 2-1 in Cologne. Count on Hansi-Flick’s men to deliver a much better performance this weekend.

Injured or Suspended Players

Borussia Dortmund: Dan-Axel Zagadou, Marcel Schmelzer, Emre Cam and Mats Hummels.
Bayern Munich: Alphonso Davies, Armindo Sieb, Niklas Sule and Leon Goretzka.

Dortmund vs Bayern Munich Predictions

This is one of those games where you find it very difficult to draw a line between the opposing sides, given how evenly-matched they are. Both teams are missing a number of key players in the defensive unit, opening us up to the prospect of a goal-glut.

Surely, Bayern have to be tagged favorites heading into this one. However, they are likely to struggle against Dortmund who will be happy to settle for a point. We have reason to believe this will end in a draw with no less than four games on the scoresheet.
