November 02: Home to Wolfsburg

Borussia Dortmund begin the month with a home game against the high flying Wolfsburg. Oliver Glasner’s side suffered a 6-1 thrashing at home to Leipzig in the DFB Pokal earlier this week, but are the only remaining unbeaten team in the Bundesliga at the moment. They are currently one point and one place clear of Borussia Dortmund, and it will by no means be an easy game for Der BVB.

Wolfsburg also have the best defensive record in the Bundesliga at the moment, and have only conceded five goals in their opening nine league games. While their attack, led by Wout Weghorst, is also more than capable of causing problems to opposition defences.
