15:33 - Back to the Future?

The Supercup has been kind to Dortmund. No team has won the competition more than Die Schwarzgelben, who have lifted the trophy five times. Bayern have four triumphs and have finished as runners up a record five times. SV Werder Bremen's three victories sees them complete the podium.

14: 25 - Müller motivation

Thomas Müller has two Supercup goals to his name, scoring in the victories over FC Schalke 04 in 2010 and Dortmund in 2012. The latter of those was the last time Bayern lifted the trophy, and Müller is ready to end that drought.

* Müller on #BVBFCB "Going for the title we have not won for three years. The motivation is, of course, great."

14:02 - Bayern support

Not that the fans of Bundesliga champions Bayern are likely to be intimidated. The Bavarians are the best-supported team in the world in terms of club membership, outstripping fellow European giants FC Barcelona and SL Benfica. Those that make the 600 kilometre journey north to Dortmund on Sunday are sure to make their voices heard.

13:33 - Take a step inside

Don't just take out word for it - see for yourself! Dortmund's capacity of 81,359 is the biggest in the Bundesliga. The Südtribüne alone houses just under 25,000 spectators. The SIGNAL IDUNA PARK is a crown jewel of the North Rhine-Westphalian region.

The SIGNAL IDUNA PARK became the first stadium in footballing history to witness an average attendance of more than 80,000 in the 2015/16 season. Regardless of who takes the spoils on Sunday, the atmosphere is sure to be electric!
