Borussia Dortmund November Preview: Big games in the Champions League and Bundesliga
By Tushar Bahl
November 24: Home vs Club Brugge (Champions League)
Borussia Dortmund will then return to Champions League action for the second game of their double header against Belgian side Club Brugge. With a packed fixture list coming up in December (including a long trip to Russia), Lucien Favre and co. will be aiming to secure qualification to the round of 16 as early as possible. And anything other than a win at home against Club Brugge will leave them with a lot of work to do in the final two matchdays.
November 28: Home vs FC Köln (Bundesliga)
Borussia Dortmund’s final game of November will pit them against FC Köln, who have endured a difficult start to the season. The Billy Goats haven’t won a Bundesliga game since football returned following the COVID-19 lockdown, and currently lie in 16th place with two draws and four losses to their name so far this season.
Dortmund should be winning this game with ease, but Köln could make things tricky for them by parking the bus and defending with ten men behind the ball.
