Borussia Dortmund face a defining weekend as they take on Schalke 04 in the Revierderby.

BVB boss Peter Bosz is currently under huge pressure after only one win in their last nine, a run which has seen them drop to fifth in the league and out of the Champions League. But Borussia Dortmund will be looking to turn it around against arch-rivals Schalke.
