When and where the Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund match takes place

What is Der Klassiker? The Bayern vs Dortmund rivalry explained

Der Klassiker, which translates to “The Classic”, is one of Germany’s fiercest rivalries not based on geography. There are more than 450 kilometres that separate the two teams. Instead, this rivalry is built on title battles. In the 1990s, Dortmund began to challenge Bayern for Bundesliga titles, and this continued into the 2000s and 2010s.

Bayern v Dortmund has also been coined the German Clásico since their 2013 meeting in the Champions League final at Wembley. Bayern came out on top 2-1, through an Arjen Robben winner. The closely fought nature of their battles and geographical distance saw them likened to Barcelona and Real Madrid - El Clásico.

Bayern’s dominance has led to them poaching a lot of Dortmund’s talent in recent years, which has added to the rivalry. Key players Mario Götze, Mats Hummels, and Robert Lewandowski have left for Munich. The latter of those is the top scorer in this fixture with 32 goals. What’s more, the Bavarians are unbeaten in five against Dortmund. That includes two wins in the league and one in the cup last season.

Here is the head-to-head record in all competitions:

Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund form, table and team news

Both Bayern and Dortmund come into this game on 17 points. They have each won five and drawn two, remaining unbeaten in the league. However, Bayern’s superior goal difference (+19 vs +8) has them sitting top.

Bayern’s last 5:

1. 6-1 (W) vs Magdeburg (DFL Cup)

2. 3-1 (W) vs Freiburg (Bundesliga)

3. 2-2 (D) vs Arsenal (Champions League)

4. 6-1 (W) vs Leipzig (Bundesliga)

5. 3-3 (D) vs Viking (Champions League)

Dortmund’s last 5:

1. 3-2 (W) vs Werder (DFL Cup)

2. 1-0 (W) vs Frankfurt (Bundesliga)

3. 2-1 (W) vs Sabah (Champions League)

4. 0-0 (D) vs Union Berlin (Bundesliga)

5. 0-1 (L) vs Bodø/Glimt (Champions League)

Harry Kane will once again be Bayern’s talisman and will be on cloud nine. The England striker has just been crowned the best player in the world, winning the Ballon d’Or. The main man has 10 goals in 12 for his club already. That includes one against old rivals Arsenal in a 2-2 Champions League draw.

Michael Olise was one of the Ballon d’Or finalists, but clearly has to prove himself more to beat his teammate. He will be a key man here due to his unpredictability and smoothness on the ball. With Vincent Kompany still recovering away from the dugout, Aaron Danks will rely on his quality.

Serhou Guirassy is not quite hitting the levels he has set in recent years. He has 6 goals in 11, but only 2 in the Bundesliga. Despite that, his ability to hold the ball up and bully defences will be key to getting anything out of Bayern.

Nico Schlotterbeck has his work cut out for him up against Harry Kane. The centre-back may prove decisive if he can keep the England striker quiet through the centre.

A number of important players will likely miss this fixture through injury, including:

Bayern Munich: Jamal Musiala, Aleksandar Pavlovic, Luis Diaz, Min-jae Kim, Manuel Neuer

Dortmund: Emre Can, Ramy Bensebaini, Kauã Prates
