15:11
Just a change at the home side. Head coach Steffen Baumgart has to do without the six Ellyes Skhiri. He’s serving a yellow card suspension. Dejan Ljubicic will replace him in the starting XI. Sebastian Andersson (rehabilitation training), Florian Dietz (rehab after a cruciate ligament rupture) and Mark Uth (rehabilitation training after surgery) are missing. Eric Martel, Kingsley Schindler and Benno Schmitz are threatened with suspension. All of them have already seen the yellow card four times this season.

The Westphalians won the first leg 5-0 at the end of October at Signal-Iduna-Park thanks to goals from Bellingham (2′, 53′), Süles (13′), Reynas (44′) and Moukokos (72′). and six of their previous seven defeats of the season away from home, coach Edin Terzić makes one change after the 2-1 home win against 1. FC Union Berlin due to injury. Özcan replaces Süle, who is out due to thigh problems.

Things are going much better for Rheinhessen at the moment. FSV Mainz 05 is unbeaten in eight games and has won five and drawn three out of the last eight games. Most recently, however, there were three draws against Hertha BSC (1-1), Freiburg (1-1) and Werder Bremen 2-2) and only one 3-0 win against RB Leipzig. This puts FSV in eighth place in the Bundesliga with 41 points.
14:59
There is a lot at stake for both sides in today’s game. With regard to the Champions League qualification and the pressure that Freiburg and the resurgent Leverkuseners are putting on the East Germans in the table, RB must not be naked against the supposed outsider. Augsburg, on the other hand, must not be blinded by the 6-point lead before this matchday. If a defeat is to be expected in Leipzig, the cushion on the relegation place could melt to three points in the worst case.
14:57
Thomas Tuchel changes two positions compared to the clear defeat in Manchester. Jamal Musiala and Alphonso Davies have to watch from the bench after some clear criticism from the audience. Instead, João Cancelo and veteran Thomas Müller start.
14:52
On the Swabian side, who will be in 15th place at least until tomorrow with a triple point win and who last beat BVB in front of their home crowd in November 2017, coach Sebastian Hoeneß was forced to make personnel changes compared to the 3-2 away win at VfL Bochum. Zagadou replaces Ito, who is missing due to an infection.
14:48
With new self-confidence, 1899 Hoffenheim would like to help Bayern to push Bayern back off the throne of the league, although the Kraichgauer’s focus should still be on their own precarious situation. Hoffenheim was able to climb out of the relegation zone with three wins in a row, but with a little bad luck the lead over the relegation rank shrinks to two points this weekend. So it is important to take the latest momentum with you and somehow score points with ailing Bayern.
14:46
Borussia Dortmund seems to have digested the big disappointments, namely the clear 2: 4 defeat in the top game at FC Bayern Munich and elimination from the DFB Cup due to the deserved 0: 2 defeat at RB Leipzig, because the most recent Bundesliga home game against 1. FC Union Berlin ended with a 2-1 home win. The black and yellow are still hot on the heels of leaders FC Bayern Munich.
14:40
After six games without a win, Cologne ended their negative run last weekend with a 3-1 win over FC Augsburg. Previously, head coach Steffen Baumgart’s team had only scored against Union Berlin (0-0) and Borussia Mönchengladbach (0-0). With the victory, the Rhinelanders freed themselves a little in the relegation battle and are now in twelfth place with 31 points. With a win against Mainz today, FC could move up to eleventh place.
14:38
After VfB Stuttgart fell to the bottom of the Bundesliga table with just one point in five games and had already parted ways with Bruno Labbadia, the first week under his successor Sebastian Hoeneß was extremely successful. After securing a place in the DFB Cup semifinals with a 1-0 away win at 1. FC Nürnberg, the chest ring winners won the basement duel at VfL Bochum 3-2 and were within sight of direct relegation.
14:37
The nerves are blank with Bayern! After the 3-0 defeat against Manchester City, the second dream of winning the title since Thomas Tuchel, who was still young, is now threatening. Unfortunately, the official reason for the managerial change was to increase the chances of the treble, which went terribly wrong. In addition, the club seems divided after Sadio Mané beat teammate Leroy Sané bloody lip. The reports came to light as quickly as if the reporters were sitting in the Munich dressing room. With all the hustle and bustle, it is almost lost that the record champions are still at the top of the table.
