The top two face off in the Bundesliga this weekend when Borussia Dortmund host Bayern Munich at the Signal-Iduna-Park on Saturday. Dortmund, level on points with Bayern but second in the table due to an inferior goal difference, have prepared for the mammoth task of stopping their rivals by winning three matches in a row in all competitions. Bayern, boasting a plus-four goal advantage over Dortmund, are the strongest team in Europe and won a treble, a haul that included the Champions League, last season. Hansi Flick's team have won their last nine matches in all competitions, a run that kicked off with a Super Cup triumph over Dortmund in September. Bayern have won their last three encounters with Dortmund. However, encouragingly for Dortmund, the reigning champions have lost two of their last three trips to the Westfalenstadion. It is important to note that those defeats occurred before Flick took over. Since he was given the reigns, Bayern have been virtually unstoppable, the detail of home or away hardly mattering. Bayern have won 20 of their last 21 games away from home, beating the likes of Barcelona, PSG, and Chelsea.

Dortmund have won their last four home matches in all competitions. In Erling Haaland, they have one of the deadliest forwards on the continent. The young Norwegian forward has scored 10 goals in 10 appearances for Dortmund this season. Bayern have felt the pain he can inflict, Haaland scoring one goal and creating another in two games against Bayern. However, on both occasions, Bayern came out on top anyway. We see a similar event occurring on Saturday. Bayern have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last four away matches. Back both teams to score in a Bayern victory.
