The interesting race for the final Champions League spot in the Bundesliga continues this weekend, as Borussia Dortmund travel to the Red Bull Arena to take on RB Leipzig. But, which side will end the day in the prized fourth spot in the German top-flight?
A crucial fixture in the battle for the fourth Champions League spot in the Bundesliga will take place at the Red Bull Arena this Saturday. RB Leipzig holds the advantage coming into this weekend, as they sit two points clear of their rivals with four matches of the season remaining. But, Dortmund could leap above their rivals with a success on the road.
Leipzig have been in excellent recent form in Germany after winning four of their last five. They also come into this round after landing victories in each of their last three fixtures. Leipzig battled to maximum points in their latest outing, with Lois Openda netting with just five minutes remaining to secure a 2-1 success on the road against Heidenheim.
Dortmund will see this fixture as a must-win clash if they are to finish in the top four position this term. The German side have dropped points in two of their last three matches, which has handed the advantage to their rivals. But, they appear secure in fifth, which could yet prove crucial come the end of the season.
Dortmund’s most recent outing ended in a draw against Bayer Leverkusen, but they would have been disappointed not to have ended the champion’s unbeaten streak this term after breaking the deadlock in the final ten minutes. However, their away form this term has been eye-catching, with Dortmund losing on just one occasion in their 15 away matches.
Leipzig have a very impressive record against Dortmund after winning four of the last five league matches between the sides. Their only defeat was suffered on the road in March 2023. Leipzig secured a dramatic 3-2 success in Dortmund earlier in the season.
Leipzig have been excellent at home this term, while Dortmund have excelled on the road. That makes it challenging to make a prediction in this crucial fixture. Given that both sides will be looking to avoid losing this fixture, it could be worthwhile to side with the points being shared.
