Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund
Spain has El Clasico, Italy has Derby di Milano, England has North-west derby, and Germany has Der Klassiker. Bayern Munich will look to win their 10th consecutive Bundesliga title when they take on rivals Borussia Dortmund at the Allianz Arena on Saturday (April 23). Ironically, Bayern Munich can win the title by defeating a team that was the last team other than the Bavarians to win the league.
The team from Munich were on the end of an upset as they crashed as they lost out to Unai Emery’s Villareal. And thus, they would look towards another league title that may mitigate the pain of the loss.
Meanwhile, Dortmund’s main aim would be to delay Bayern’s crowning as champions. Marco Rose’s men have taken ten points from their last five games. However, it includes the 4-1 loss to Domenico Tedesco’s RB Leipzig at home. Thus, a win against Bayern would serve as a perfect boost of confidence for the next season.
Julian Nagelsmann would have hoped for a better first season, but a league win will at least ensure his job safety for the next season.
With both sides having an underwhelming season, the result will not significantly impact their respective campaigns.
Team News
Bayern Munich could be without five players, with Lucas Hernandez, Kingsley Coman, Niklas Sule, Corentin Tolisso, and Bouna Sarr on the treatment table.
In the absence of both Sule and Hernandez, Bayern could line up in a four-man defence.

Youngster Jamal Musiala is now a full-fledged first team member and could again start in the midfield. Elsewhere, Thomas Muller will become the first player in Bundesliga history to win 11 titles if Bayern take all three points on Saturday.
