Dortmund Carries the Hopes of the Title Contenders Against Bayern

Borussia Dortmund seems to be carrying the hopes of all those dreaming of winning the Bundesliga title this season, especially after their old rival and guest, Bayern Munich, pulled six points ahead of their nearest challenger, Eintracht Frankfurt.

Dortmund, currently in fifth place and trailing Bayern by 10 points, knows that to keep their hopes alive of dethroning the Bavarian team, they must defeat them on Saturday evening. This comes by continuing their impressive home form, having won all six league matches at home this season, compared to earning only a single point away from home.

Dortmund is still searching for a league title since 2012, as they failed to clinch the title in 2023 despite coming close and finished fifth last season.

Meanwhile, Bayern’s honorary president, Uli Hoeneß, has dismissed Dortmund as a contender for the title. Still, Dortmund’s sporting director, Lars Ricken, raised the challenge flag before the highly anticipated clash, saying: “We in the sporting administration are confident that this match will be fantastic, and we will win it. We want to triumph, and we can achieve it.”

Here are some indicators to help you predict the correct result and win with “Betway”:
