Bundesliga Preview: RB Leipzig vs Borussia Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund make the trip to RB Leipzig this weekend, looking to claw their way back into the Bundesliga title picture.

Borussia Dortmund are back in action in the Bundesliga on Saturday in another big game, this time facing RB Leipzig. Dortmund have had their share of struggles this season and face another tough test against a Leipzig side that has only lost once in the Bundesliga this season. This is a game Dortmund cannot afford to lose if they plan on catching Leipzig in the table.

RB Leipzig have been in great form this season with their only loss of the season coming against Borussia Mönchengladbach. Leipzig are coming off a 1-0 win against a resilient VfB Stuttgart side, and find themselves in second place in the Bundesliga standings. One thing Dortmund can take solace in is that Leipzig are yet to win against any of last season’s Bundesliga top five. They have drawn against Bayern and Leverkusen and suffered a defeat to Gladbach.

Borussia Dortmund picked up an important win last weekend, beating Wolfsburg 2-0, with Jadon Sancho scoring his first Bundesliga goal of the season. It was a tough game against a strong defensive side and Dortmund will need to be at their best once again this weekend as they take on second placed RB Leipzig. Dortmund typically have no problem showing up for the big games, so it will be interesting to see how Terzic handles his first big game against another top Bundesliga side.
