Dortmund seem to have overcome a tough start to the season as they come into this match on the back of two successive wins. They defeated Freiburg 4-0 in the league before a 3-0 rout of Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League this week.
League leaders Bayern Munich extended their winning streak across all competitions to seven games with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over PSG in the Champions League. Their last Bundesliga game saw them convincingly defeat Augsburg 3-0.
This German Bundesliga clash takes place at the Signal Iduna Park in Dortmund, Germany and kicks off on Saturday, November 30 at 6:30 p.m. local time.
Borussia Dortmund will be without Karim Adeyemi who is sidelined with a hamstring injury. Additionally, Julian Brandt is a doubt after being subbed off due to a knock against Dinamo Zagreb in their last match.
Emre Can will also miss this game as he will be serving the second game of two match suspension. However, Niklas Sule has recovered from an ankle injury and could feature off the bench.
