Saturday's round of the eleventh round of the top German football competition will conclude the battle between the teams aspiring to secure a Champions League place.
Background information, news and team form
Leipzig, despite a fierce performance, failed to beat visiting PSG at home in the Champions League on Wednesday, and their chances of qualification are now definitely extinguished. Leipzig put in a very fine performance in the millionaire's competition, as even in such a group of death where you have PSG and Manchester City, they managed to keep up with their opponents and played open, attacking football. Unfortunately, this attacking football did manage to gift the favourites some nice goals, but the opponents always managed to outshoot Leipzig, and so, for example, the three goals Leipzig scored at City's ground meant a 6-3 defeat in the end and no points added to the final table. Leipzig still has two games to play in which they have a chance to catch up with Bruges and play at least in the Europa League. Leipzig is only in 8th place in the league with 15 because they have thrown all their efforts into the Champions League. However, if they are eventually eliminated from European competition, Leipzig could concentrate on the league and improve their final position in the table.Dortmund is also playing in the Champions League this season and Dortmund's fate has drawn Ajax, Sporting and Besiktas into the group. Dortmund managed to win their opening two matches and everything indicated that they would take care of their promotion from the group, however, in the last two matches Borrusia lost twice to Ajax, who scored 6 more points and with a total of 12 points is a sure advancer in the group. Dortmund still has to play Sporting Lisbon, who have the same number of points, for second place and the battle for second place will be very interesting. As far as the league is concerned, Dortmund is still holding on to first place Bayern, only one point behind them in second place. The complication Dortmund have to deal with is the injury of their biggest star Erling Halaand, who is expected to return after Christmas. His 9 goals and 3 assists so far will have to be replaced by someone else.
