Borussia Dortmund welcome guests from Berlin to their stadium on Sunday evening.
Basic information, news and team form
Like every year, Dortmund will want to make life at least a little bit more uncomfortable for Bayern and put pressure on the top of the table. But if Marco Rose's charges want to challenge for the top spot, they must improve defensively. Dortmund have not kept a clean sheet in their last 6 competitive games, and Marc Rose has a lot to work on with his charges. Dortmund are playing in the Champions League group stage again this year and this week they began their journey in the millionaire competition at Besiktas in Turkey. Despite a huge squad, Borussia managed to win 1:2 after goals from Bellingham and Haaland, who the management is surely glad didn't go abroad in the summer like Sancho.
Union are also participating in the European Cup this season thanks to a surprising seventh place finish last season, specifically in the newly formed conference competition. Union played a game against Slávia Prague on Thursday, which they lost 3-1 in Eden, with Bah, Kuchta and Schranz scoring for the home side and Behrens for the visitors. Union played an even match, but in the 40th minute the second yellow card for Jaeckel came and the result of the match was already pre-decided. Union are one of the teams that have not lost in the Bundesliga and Borussia will not have an easy game.
