I will explain a little about your situation in league and how they have been in this tournament until this tie.

– They reach this meeting with 3 wins and 2 losses in their last 5 league games. Before they play this tie, they will receive Chemnitzer (5th) on the 25th in a tough match for them.

– In their fief have quite bad numbers according to the general position in which they are and are the 6th WORST local league. In their 11 games played at home they have won 4 wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats where they have scored 16 goals and have conceded 14. They have 3 consecutive defeats in their field.

In the DFB Pokal have played a total of 3 matches. In the 1/32 finals they managed to eliminate Werder Bremen (2-1), in 1/16 they eliminated Bayer Leverkusen of Chicharito (victory in the penalties after drawing 1-1 in the 90 minutes regulation and finishing the extension with 2 -2) and in 1/8 of final eliminated to the 1860 Munich (2-0).

Dortmund

His current balance is 10 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses where they have scored 43 goals and have conceded 23, being the team’s second highest scorer in the league. Currently (weekend play vs Freiburg) they occupy positions of direct access to the UCL and share points with the Hoffenheim, team that today occupies the square that gives access to the previous phase of UCL. Below they have Eintracht and Hertha which are 2 and 3 points respectively.

– They reach this match with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in their last 5 league matches (in the absence of the match vs Freiburg).

– Away from Signal Iduna Park have bad numbers despite being the 5th best visitor. In their 11 outings have won 3 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats where they have scored 21 goals and have 18. This is the main reason that this team is not disputing the league with Bayern.

In the DFB Pokal have played a total of 3 matches. In the 1/32 finals they eliminated the humble Trier (0-3), in the 1/16 of final they drew 1-1 before the Union Berlin and they were classified in the penalties, and in the 1/8 returned tie 1-1 But this time before the Hertha Berlin and returned to win in the penalties.

The difference in the squad is abysmal and it is true that the BVB is sure to do rotations but they will still play 4 or 5 starters so this is not a historic and shameful defeat. If the match goes on with complete normality the BVB should take the match on the street and without much suffering.
