Borussia Dortmund will be back in front of their home fans this weekend, as they look to record a second straight win. However, Wolfsburg should be confident ahead of this fixture, as they have won three of their opening four.
Bundesliga Preview
Borussia Dortmund will be hoping to move into the Champions League spots this weekend, as they chase a second straight league win. It hasn’t been the most straightforward start to the new season for the hosts this weekend, as they have won just twice across their opening four league matches.
However, they ended a two-game drawing run in the last round of matches, as they collected maximum points from their fixture against Freiburg. Mats Hummels was in excellent form in front of goal, as the German defender netted twice in the victory. Donyell Malen also found the back of the net, while Marco Reus completing the scoring in the second minute of injury time.
Wolfsburg currently sit a place higher than Dortmund in the league standings, and they could also move into the Champions League spots with a victory on the road this weekend. The visitors have won three of their opening four matches, and they showed excellent character in their previous outing to bounce back from the defeat that they suffered before the international break.
It was an excellent performance by Wolfsburg last Saturday, as they scored a 2-1 win over Union Berlin. Wolfsburg opened the scoring after 12 minutes through Jonas Wind, before Joakim Maehle netted the winning goal just two minutes after Union had drawn level. However, they will likely need to defend much better this weekend against Dortmund if they are to pick up maximum points.
