RB Leipzig is in the title fight. A win today would bring the Saxons temporarily within a point of FC Bayern. Most recently, there have been dominant victories against Wolfsburg and Frankfurt, and the Red Bulls have also set an exclamation mark in the Champions League. In the round of 16, they drew 1-1 against Manchester City. A historic season is possible for Leipzig and a lot depends on how you perform against BVB. If they lost today, the black and yellow would have dropped to seven points and in just over a month they will meet again in the DFB Cup quarter-finals.

Today it is up to BVB to prove that the outstanding form of 2023 will also last against the absolute top clubs. Dortmund have won nine games in a row. The opponents in these games were all weaker than the black and yellow. The best teams were FC Chelsea (10th in the Premier League) and SC Freiburg, who were outnumbered from the 17th minute. Will Dortmund’s winning streak last against in-form Leipzig? This question will probably decide the rest of the season for Borussia.
