Borussia Dortmund - Bayern Munich ai prediction 07.11.2020 Bundesliga

Betting Tip for matchday 7 of the 2020/2021 Bundesliga between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich.

Der Klassiker

Der Klassiker, the German version of El Classico takes place this weekend as Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich lock horns at the Signal Iduna Park in their first league meeting this season.

BORUSSIA DORTMUND

Dortmund’s 3-1 loss at Lazio in their first Champions League game a couple of weeks ago appears to have lit a match in their bellies. They have looked like a different team since then and have won their next four games by a combined 10-0 margin, including the 3-0 midweek win at Club Brugge, with a brace from exciting Norwegian sensation Erling Haaland and a Hazard goal sealing the deal by halftime.

They are tied on 15 points with Bayern at the top of the table. Having pushed Bayern to the finish line last season but coming up just short, they will certainly be looking to make a better run this time around.

They have nevertheless lost six of the last seven editions of Der Klassiker. Until they turn this tide, they will always be seen to be under the shadow of the Bavarians in the Bundesliga race.

BAYERN MUNICH

Bayern also needed a loss to jolt them into action. They were humiliated 4-1 at Hoffenheim towards the end of September but they have responded in ruthless fashion, rattling nine straight wins in all competitions following that loss, with the last of these coming on Tuesday and they thrashed Austrian side RB Salzburg 6-2 at in Austria.

The Bavarians appear to be in even better shape than last season when they won the treble, with a win against Dortmund in the latter stages of the league campaign literally sealing their eighth Bundesliga title.

Lewandowski also scored a double in that midweek rout of Salzburg to take his tally for the season to 12 goals in eight competitive games. Coach Hansi Flick will restore him to lead the lines against his former team after resting him for in last weekend’s win at Cologne.
