Full-time: BVB 0-4 Bayern

Bayern Munich outplayed, out-passed, outscored and overcame their rivals Borussia Dortmund in a one-sided Klassiker that served to signal the record champions' title intent. Dayot Upamecano scored the opener but from then on it was the Harry Kane show, the Englishman netting his third Bundesliga treble to take his top-flight tally to 15 goals in 10 games.

The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).
Bayern have been on fire here and their continued attacking suggests there might be more goals in this game for the visitors.

Some of the most passionate in the business, the BVB supporters have played their part in an on-going 20-match unbeaten home run in the Bundesliga, dating back to Matchday 2 of last season (a 3-2 loss to Werder Bremen from 2-0 up that should never have been).

Dortmund against Bayern, Der Klassiker. A game which in recent years has been dominated and generally defined by attackers – and little wonder, with the likes of Robert Lewandowski, Erling Haaland, Marco Reus and Thomas Müller involved. This season’s encounters unsurprisingly promise more of the same. For hosts Dortmund, Reus, Julian Brandt, Niclas Füllkrug and the rest have impressed above all through their efficiency so far; while visitors Bayern are fresh from setting a new interim Bundesliga scoring record – 34 goals after Matchday 9 thanks in no small part to the great Harry Kane.

Kehl: "Terzic spoilt for choice"

Sporting director, Sebastian Kehl, was delighted with BVB's midweek win over in-form TSG, telling media after the game: "We're still unbeaten, we're on a great run, we're very stable at home, we're in good form and condition, and we have a big squad... The coach will be spoilt for choice at the weekend."

Müller: "We weren't clever"

Thomas Müller, who opened the scoring before Saarbrücken's comeback, described the cup exit as "brutal" this week, saying: “We simply weren't clever... we had several chances, we were completely on top and showed plenty of drive towards the opposition goal. We're playing again on Saturday. There's not much to think about now, even if it's a brutal blow for us. This is not at all what we aspire to.”

Bayern got in the mood for this Klassiker with a thumping 8-0 win over Darmstadt on Saturday, with Harry Kane grabbing a hat-trick in a blistering second-half display.

Home fortress

Dortmund are unbeaten in their last 20 Bundesliga home matches. Their last defeat at the Signal Iduna Park dates back to a crazy 3-2 reverse against Werder Bremen on 20 August 2022, when they were 2-0 up until the 89th minute, only to concede three times in the final few minutes.

BVB better this calendar year

Dortmund have won more points than any other Bundesliga side in the 2023 calendar year so far (67), considerably more than Bayern (60).

Recent history points one way

Bayern have won eight of the last nine Klassiker meetings in the Bundesliga, drawing once.
