Why you should rely on Borussia Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund is on course for success in 2023. Since Bundesliga play resumed after the end of the World Cup, Dortmund have won nine games in a row in all competitions. Dortmund beat their opponents 23-7 in that period. This stretch includes a 1-0 win over Chelsea in the first leg of a knockout game in the Champions League.
At least part of BVB’s winning streak goes back to the return of Sebastien Haller. Haller, 28, who missed the start of the season while battling cancer, has scored just one goal in nine games in all competitions since returning. But his intangible assets make him a key figure in Edin Terzic’s attack.
Why you should rely on RB Leipzig
Christopher Nkunku is one of the top scorers in the world. The 25-year-old scored 12 goals in the first 15 games of the season before being sidelined for three months with a knee injury. He returned on February 18 and provided an assist in a 3-0 win against Wolfsburg and wants to compete against BVB.
Also, RB Leipzig meets a Borussia Dortmund side who may not have their full attention on Friday. Four days after the game against Leipzig, BVB has to play Chelsea in the second leg of the Champions League. Dortmund lead 1-0 on aggregate at the start of this game, so the club can’t afford fatigue.
