Prediction

  • Dortmund have lost five in a row on the road in all comps, in stark contrast to their outstanding league best home record of four straight wins.
  • Leipzig, 19 league games without defeat, are looking good to sustain a title challenge, despite two frustrating 0-0 draws against likely relegation fodder before the recent international break.
  • Leipzig did the double last season over Dortmund (3-2, 4-1) but a draw is the play here, a result that will please their rivals Leverkusen and Bayern.
