Where To Watch Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund In The Bundesliga for Free?
Bayern Munich will face their intense rivals Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga on Saturday at the Allianz Arena. The Bavarians hold the top position with 68 points after their 3-1 win over Augsburg on April 4, which is six points ahead of second-placed Bayer Leverkusen, while Dortmund, currently in eighth place, defeated Freiburg 4-1 on April 5 and now has 41 points.
Bayern managed to recover from a 1-0 deficit against Augsburg, aided by the fact their opponents had a player sent off in the 59th minute when the score was 1-1. The home team has achieved three or more goals in eight of their last 12 league matches, and their total of 81 goals in the Bundesliga exceeds that of any other top-flight team by at least 18 goals. Coach Vincent Kompany’s team has a goal difference of 54, and with only six matchweeks left, his squad would need to drop points at least three times to lose their lead in the title race, especially considering Leverkusen only holds a goal difference of 29.
Bayern will encounter a challenging final six games of the season, as they are set to play against fourth-placed Mainz 05, fifth-placed RB Leipzig, and sixth-placed Borussia Monchengladbach in three of their four matches following Saturday’s encounter.
Although Borussia Dortmund could have conceded more than once against Freiburg, as they faced three significant chances and allowed 15 shots within the box, they deserve recognition for crafting numerous big opportunities. The visitors have netted seven goals in their last two Bundesliga matches, although they did not score in their prior two league games. It is important to point out that Niko Kovac’s team was effectively knocked out of the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday after suffering a 4-0 defeat to Barcelona in the first leg of their quarter-final match. BVB still has a chance to qualify for Europe’s premier tournament, as they trail Mainz 05 by just five points, who currently occupy the final Champions League qualification position.
Bayern’s injury issues are increasing, with defenders Alphonso Davies, Dayot Upamecano, and Hiroki Ito ruled out, alongside goalkeepers Manuel Neuer and Tarek Buchmann. Expect goalkeeper Jonas Urbig to be supported by Konrad Laimer, Eric Dier, Kim Min-jae, and Josip Stanisic. Joshua Kimmich is guaranteed to play in midfield, and he may be accompanied by Joao Palhinha, as Aleksandar Pavlovic will be sidelined for several more days. With forwards Jamal Musiala and Kingsley Coman unavailable, striker Harry Kane may take the field alongside a supporting cast that includes Michael Olise, Thomas Muller, and Serge Gnabry.
Dortmund has only two injury concerns, with centre-back Nico Schlotterbeck and midfielder Marcel Sabitzer unable to play. Emre Can and Waldemar Anton are expected to fill central defense, while Pascal Gross could partner with Carney Chukwuemeka in midfield. In attack, striker Serhou Guirassy may start ahead of Karim Adeyemi, Julian Brandt, and Jamie Bynoe-Gittens.
