Borussia Dortmund January Preview: Getting ready for the rückrunde
By Tushar Bahl
Borussia Dortmund will be taking part in a warm weather training camp in Spain, before playing two Bundesliga fixtures in January.
Borussia Dortmund had a near perfect December, soured only by the final two games. Those dropped points against Leipzig and Hoffenheim proved to be costly though, as the Black and Yellows now find themselves seven points behind the league leaders going into the winter break.
But the title race is by no means over yet, and Borussia Dortmund have already bolstered their squad with the arrival of Erling Haaland. A strong start to the second half of the season could bring them right back into the mix of things at the top.
Lucien Favre’s side begin the year by playing three friendly matches in Spain, before getting their Bundesliga campaign back underway later in the month.
Here we take a look at what lies ahead for Borussia Dortmund in January.
