Bayern vs Dortmund: Prediction and Preview | The Analyst (The Analyst)

In what is the tightest title race across Europe's major leagues, Borussia Dortmund head to Bayern Munich with a one-point lead over their Bundesliga rivals ...

Guerreiro has been directly involved in nine goals in the second half of this Bundesliga season (two goals, seven assists in five games), a league best, as is his 3.2 open-play chances created per 90 minutes across this period. In his other five appearances as a starter in the second half of the 2022-23 Bundesliga season, Müller racked up two goals and four assists, including at least one goal involvement in each of his three starts at the Allianz Arena during this time (one goal, three assists). Despite their great form in 2023, Borussia Dortmund are only given a 13.9% chance of winning, with the supercomputer believing Bayern’s impressive home form will be the deciding factor. This was the first time that they have lost a Bundesliga game this season from a leading position, while both of Leverkusen’s goals came from penalties – the first occasion that Bayern had conceded twice from the penalty spot in the same Bundesliga game in 30 years (April 1993 vs. Across those last two matchdays, no player in the Bundesliga has been involved in as many attacking sequences as Guerreiro (19) whose attacking prowess became even more important following Julian Brandt’s absence due to injury. Müller has regularly haunted Dortmund, with his six goals and nine assists the most goal involvements of any current Bundesliga player against BVB in league competition. Tuchel will hope to get off to a good start there, too – no Bayern coach has lost their first ever league game in charge of the club since Franz Beckenbauer in February 1994 (3-1 at home vs. It was the first time they had scored six goals in a Bundesliga match under Edin Terzic. Bayern Munich have won just five of their 10 Bundesliga matches in 2023 so far (D3 L2), and with 52 points from 25 games, this is their weakest Bundesliga season in 11 years. Bayern will hope to lean upon their excellent home form, with the record champions unbeaten in 19 Bundesliga matches at the Allianz Arena (W13 D6), while they have scored in each of their last 52 home league games there (171 goals, 3.29 per game). The Allianz Arena hasn’t been a venue that Borussia Dortmund have enjoyed playing at in recent memory, with Bayern winning their last eight successive home games in league competition against them whilst averaging more than four goals per game on average (33-6 aggregate score). This happened most recently on matchday 28 of 2018-19, when Bayern hammered Dortmund 5-0 at the Allianz Arena to overtake their rivals and eventually win the Bundesliga title.

Bayern Munich v Borussia Dortmund: Bundesliga – live (The Guardian)

Minute-by-minute report: Thomas Tuchel takes charge of Bayern for the first time against his old team. Join Alex Hess.

The winger whips an early shot at goal from the edge of the box and Kobel lunges to his right and gets to it, but all he can do is push the ball out to the feet of Muller, who once again helps himself from close range. De Ligt attacks the resulting corner with a towering header from the penalty spot and Muller meets the ball at the back post to tap home from under the bar. The good news is that a win here would put crisis-club Bayern on track for the title. 7 mins: A half-chance arrives for Dortmund at Wolf links up nicely with Brandt, who dances forward and feeds Reus charging down the right. His head is in his hands as the balls sails past him and trickles into the net. He cuts into the box and is one-on-one with Kobel but the keeper does well not to commit himself and Coman eventually slips over trying to take the ball around him. Sane cuts inside and when Muller, on the edge of the box, draws his marker toward the ball, the winger picks out his counterpart who is arriving from the other flank. Given the ball from a goal kick, Ryerson sleepwalks down the line into trouble and is robbed by Sané. Bayern surge forward again, Sane reaching a dead end on the right and going back to Kimmich on the edge of the box. 48 mins: Bayern pick up where they left off, Davies charging down the left and nudging back to Coman. It starts in the centre circle with the eventual scorer, who sweeps the ball out to Sane on the right. He spots Choupo-Moting peeling away and with his back to goal, the German takes the chipped pass on his chest before scissor-kicking into the bottom corner.
