The Yellow and Blacks have overcome a stuttering start to the season to, once more, establish themselves as staunch favourites for the league title. Led by wonder kid, Erling Haaland, Dortmund have been particularly impressive of late, and have won five of their last six encounters across all competitions – including a memorable 2-1 victory over French champions, PSG.

Lucien Favre knows his side cannot afford to make mistakes at this crucial stage of the season if they are to finally lay their hands on an elusive Bundesliga title.

SC Freiburg have defied pre-season expectations to place themselves firmly in the running for Europa League football. The Red and Blacks are ninth on the log, three points behind Schalke in sixth, but were it not for a recent bad run of results, could be much higher.

Freiburg have won just once in their last five league outings, a run which looks set to continue as they face a Dortmund side unbeaten at home all season.

Borussia Dortmund will host Freiburg this Saturday in German Bundesliga action. Dortmund will attempt to win their third straight Bundesliga game in this weekend’s clash with Freiburg. The hosts may be encouraged by Freiburg’s lack of form in recent weeks going into this weekend’s clash.

Despite currently sitting in ninth place in the Bundesliga table, Freiburg have earned just 11 points over their last 10 Bundesliga games. Only three sides have earned fewer points than Freiburg in that time.

Freiburg have particularly been struggling for wins away from home in recent weeks. They have won just one of their last nine Bundesliga away games. Freiburg have earned just seven points over their last eight Bundesliga away games, which gives them the Bundesliga’s joint-third worst away record in that time.

In contrast to Freiburg, Dortmund have been enjoying an impressive run of form lately. Firstly, Dortmund have won five of their last six Bundesliga games going into Saturday’s fixture.

Over the last 10 games, during which time Freiburg have earned just 11 Bundesliga points, Dortmund have earned a total of 22 points, doubling Freiburg’s points total in that time period.

In addition to that, Dortmund currently have the best home record in the Bundesliga for the 2019/20 season. Saturday’s hosts have earned a total of 27 points from their 11 Bundesliga home games thus far. They are currently undefeated at home this season, winning eight of their 11 Bundesliga home games.
