Borussia Dortmund will hope to snap their poor run of form and get back to winning ways on Saturday when they host RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga.
The stage is set for a captivating Bundesliga contest as the beleaguered Borussia Dortmund take on the resurgent RB Leipzig in this weekend's topspiel. Marco Rose will hope to heap more misery on his former club and pile the pressure on Nuri Sahin, who is already facing plenty of heat after BVB's poor start to the season.
The Black and Yellows will be without a number of key players on Saturday, with Gregor Kobel joining the likes of Karim Adeyemi, Niklas Süle, Yan Couto, Julien Duranville, and Gio Reyna on the sidelines. RB Leipzig have a few injury issues of their own, with key duo Xavi Simons and Xaver Schlager unavailable.
Despite their disappointing start to the season, Borussia Dortmund have won all their games at the Westfalenstadion so far this season. And they will desperately hope to keep that run going on Saturday. Leading the way for BVB will be Serhou Guirassy and Julian Brandt. Pascal Groß will also be crucial as he gets ready to start at right-back once again.
RB Leipzig have a number of game-changers in their squad, and their attack will be led by Loïs Openda and Benjamin Sesko on Saturday. The strike duo will look to add the Borussia Dortmund's misery.
