Munich (AP) – There was not much reason to celebrate for Borussia Dortmund in the past six Bundesliga guest appearances at Bayern. It was 2: 4, 0: 4, 0: 5, 0: 6, 1: 4 and 1: 5 for BVB in Munich.
A simple victory this Saturday (6.30 p.m. / Sky) is enough for Bayern to make the tenth German football championship in a row perfect against their permanent rival. Even if there is a draw, the hosts can only theoretically be caught after the 31st matchday. “We want to be champions in the home game,” emphasized coach Julian Nagelsmann before the Bundesliga cracker.
The German Clásico has produced many memorable moments in the past: There was Oliver Kahn in kung fu style, Jan Koller as a temporary goalkeeper or Robert Lewandowski in constant goal scoring. Are there more to follow in the Munich Arena?

BVB can no longer change. So the 2.02 meter striker Jan Koller goes into the goal. 24 minutes long – and remains without a goal. The “kicker” then called him into the eleven of the day. As a goalkeeper, of course. Koller had also scored 1-0 for BVB, who still lost 1-2 in Munich.
