The day after tomorrow is the day! The “classic” between FC Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund takes place – but without Julian Nagelsmann on the Bayern sidelines. You can find out why here at SPOX.
There are less than two days until the big “classic” in the Bundesliga between FC Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund. Games with these two teams, the best two in the country, always carry a lot of relevance. This statement is particularly true on Saturday, April 1st, because the result could later be decisive for winning the championship.
In the table, not FC Bayern, but BVB is currently in the lead. However, the lead is by no means one to rest on. A point separates the top clubs nine games before the end.
The top game of the 26th matchday between Bayern Munich and Dortmund kicks off at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday. The Allianz Arena in Munich serves as the venue. Normally, BVB are one of Bayern’s favorite opponents – Bayern have won seven of their last eight meetings against the Black and Yellows in the Bundesliga – but their first meeting of the season ended in a 2-2 draw.
