Borussia Dortmund will be aiming to make a winning start to 2021 as they host VfL Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga on Sunday.

The Bundesliga makes its return this weekend after a two week break, and Borussia Dortmund open the new year with a tough home game against Wolfsburg. Dortmund find themselves eight points behind league leaders Bayern Munich and cannot afford to drop too many points in the coming weeks.

Borussia Dortmund defeated Eintracht Braunschweig in the DFB Pokal just before the winter break. Their Bundesliga form makes for a grim reading though, with only one win in their last five matches. Edin Terzic has won two of his three games in charge so far, and he will be aiming to mark his home debut with a victory against Wolfsburg on Sunday.

Wolfsburg have enjoyed an impressive start to the new season, and currently find themselves in fourth place, two points clear of Borussia Dortmund. They have tasted just one defeat so far this season, which came against Bayern Munich in their penultimate league game of 2020. Oliver Glasner has made the Wolves very hard to beat. And with Wout Weghorst leading the line, they will fancy their chances of pulling off an upset at the Westfalenstadion on Sunday.
