BVB Dortmund Borussia Dortmund - B04 Leverkusen Bayer Leverkusen

Sat, 11.04.202613:30 PM

SIGNAL IDUNA PARK

Better than Bayern

BVB have taken a league-high 28 points from a possible 33 during the second half of the season (Matchday 18 onwards). Runaway leaders Bayern have claimed 26 points in that time.

First time for everything

Just three days separated Leverkusen's home loss in the league to the Black-Yellows and their cup victory at Signal Iduna Park earlier this season. They also won 3-2 at Dortmund in last term's Bundesliga, but have never recorded three straight competitive victories on BVB soil.

Tough nut to crack

Dortmund have lost just twice in the league this season - both to Bayern Munich - ahead of Matchday 29. It's their fewest number of defeats at this stage of a campaign for 60 years!
