Der Klassiker : Borussia Dortmund vs Bayern Munich




Borussia Dortmund will face Bayern Munich on saturday {kick-off 6p.m} in German Clasico also called Der Klassiker. Dortmund suffered a disappointing defeat at the hands of Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League. 

Athough, Dortmund has returned from Madrid with no new injury concerns and are brimming with confidence domestically. Lukas Piszczek returned to the side in midweek and should start at right-back, with Achraf Hakimi moving to the left side of defence. Abdou Diallo's fitness remains a concern, but Dan-Axel Zagadou is his ready-made replacement if needed. 


Bayern's midweek fixture brought better return than Dortmund's, as Niko Kovac's side defeat AEK Athens in a comfortable two-goal win. Lewandowski scored both of those goals, and he will be on the hunt for more in Dortmund.

POSSIBLE LINEUP:




Dortmund: Burki, Piszczek, Akanji, Zagadou, Hakimi, Witsel, Delaney, Sancho, Reus , Bruun Larsen, Alcacer
Absentees: Schmelzer {knee}
Coach: Lucien Favre



Bayern: Neuer, Kimmich, Niklas, Hummels, Alaba,Martinez, Robben, Goretzka, James, Gnabry ,Lewandowski
Absentees: Thiago, Coman {both ankle}, Tolisso {knee}
Coach: Niko Kovac
