It’s the shock of this 12th day of the Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund hosts Bayern Munich this Saturday at 6:30 p.m. at Signal Iduna Park (follow the match live on FM). If they want to stay in touch for the race for the top 4, BVB must win at home. Nuri Şahin’s men are on 4 victories in the last 5 matches and have had a difficult start to the season with checkered results. The dynamic has been better for some time and must remain so to win. Facing Bayern Munich, the Yellows remain on a 2-0 victory at the Allianz Arena last season even though they had not won since 2019 before this match. The Munich residents must establish their domination of the championship and keep their lead on Frankfurt, which remains 6 points behind. Better attack and better defense, Vincent Kompany’s players dominate their subject at the start of the season.
Deprived of Brandt, Can and Adeyemi, BVB will play with Bynoe-Gittens on the left wing of the attack and Beier on the right. Behind, Schlotterbeck and Anton will form the central hinge, Gross and Nmecha in midfield behind Sabitzer who will support Guirassy. On the Bayern side, it will be a classic 4-2-3-1 with Laimer playing on the right of the defense and Davies on the left. Kimmich and Goretzka in midfield, Tel starts on the left wing and Sané on the right.
Team compositions:
Borussia Dortmund: Kobel – Ryerson, Anton, Schlotterbeck (cap.), Bensebaini – Nmecha, Gross – Beier, Sabitzer, Bynoe-Gittens – Guirassy.
Bayern Munich: Neuer (cap.) – Laimer, Upamecano, Min-jae, Davies – Kimmich, Goretzka – Sané, Musiala, Tel – Kane.
