German juggernauts Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund face off in the latest edition of Der Klassiker
Der Klassiker is one of the biggest dates on the European soccer schedule this weekend as Borussia Dortmund travels to Bayern Munich on Saturday hoping to compound the misery of its greatest rival. Die Roten have endured a miserable season thus far under Thomas Tuchel and are on the verge of failing to win the Bundesliga title for the first time since 2012 as they sit 10 points off leading frontrunner Bayer Leverkusen. The Black and Yellows are 10 points further behind in fourth and even more certain to not contest the crown, but any chance to dampen Bayern’s spirits is too good to pass up.

The major news out of Bavaria ahead of Saturday’s ‘derby’ encounter is that Harry Kane may indeed make the match in time after he was cast as a doubt due to an ankle injury.
The England striker missed both of his country’s matches during the international break (against Brazil and Belgium) but has returned to team training ahead of Der Klassiker.
It’s just as well for the host, too, considering Kane netted a hat-trick in his first taste of this fixture four months ago and currently sits on a Bundesliga high of 31 goals in his debut German campaign:
Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is also considered a doubt to be fit in time for Saturday, which would be another significant loss to Tuchel’s XI if the 38-year-old was ruled out.
Dortmund, meanwhile, has stitched together its best patch of form so far this season after winning four in a row ahead of the crunch encounter, joining Bayern in the last eight of the Champions League.
Edin Terzic’s side have lost just one of their last 15 games across all competitions, and the club is still yet to lose away from home thus far in 2024, which could spell bad news for Bayern.
Regional restrictions may apply.
