The period of less good is confirmed for Borussia Dortmund. After conceding a draw at home against Werder last weekend, then losing at Bodo/Glimt midweek in the Champions League, the German club went on a third consecutive match without a victory. The BvB did not manage to do better than a draw at Union Berlin (0-0). It’s enough to take the lead but Friborg and Bayern can overtake them at the end of this 6th day of the Bundesliga.

The Recorder welcomes RB Leipzig at 6:30 p.m. In the other matches this afternoon, Mainz did an excellent job by winning at Schalke (1-0) and jumped 4 places in the standings. Urs Fischer’s men are now 5th, just a short distance from the podium. Hamburg won against Stuttgart at the very end of the match (1-0). Werder managed to catch up on Paderborn but are hanging on at home (2-2). For its part, Elversberg ended up overcoming Augsburg (4-3), which therefore went on to a 4th match without a victory.

The results of the 3:30 p.m. matches:

Elversberg 4 – 3 Augsburg: Petkov (4th), Günther (7th), Rohr (28th), Schmahl (89th); Rieder (sp 45th+9), Gregoritsch (sp 76th), Komur (90th)
