Bayern Munich travel to the magnificent Westfalenstadion / Signal Iduna Park to face Borussia Dortmund in this edition of Der Klassiker. The Bavarians are not exactly heavy favorites this time around, but Vincent Kompany and co are in red-hot form and will look to extend their current unbeaten streak in all competitions. Dortmund won’t be making it easy for the Reds, as the team in Yellow is unbeaten in 11 straight home games.
Die Schwarzgelben sits fifth in the league with a 6-1-4 record (19 points) while the Rekordmeister maintains a six-point lead on the summit of the Bundesliga with a 9-2-0 record for 29 points, 10 ahead of their adversary today.
It’s Bayern time.
