What a top match this week! Saturday’s showdown at the BayArena pits Leverkusen and Dortmund against each other in a crucial top-four duel, with both clubs battling not just for immediate points but also to keep pace with RB Leipzig (26 pts) and Bayern Munich (31 pts) in the Bundesliga standings.
Leverkusen arrive in formidable form - unbeaten at home in the Bundeslia under Kasper Hjulmand and boasting one of the league’s most potent attacks - while Dortmund counter with the second best defence in the league and enough offensive firepower to make this clash highly unpredictable.
The stakes are clear: a win could be the difference between remaining in the chase or falling behind in a rapidly tightening Bundesliga title race. With just about one hour to go until kickoff, here are the confirmed lineups for both teams:
