It’s quite complicated this season for Dortmund who should not be able to challenge the title at Bayern Munich in the spring. Worse, the club will have to fight to regain the Champions League. Indeed, Borussia is in 7th place in the standings, already 13 lengths behind the Bavarian leader. Much less well lately, the men of Erin Terzik remain on 3 against performances. Held in check by the very poorly classified Mainz (1-1), they were then beaten by Bayer Leverkusen (2-1) and then by Borussia Mönchengladbach (4-2) last week.
Opposite, Augsburg should be able to validate without too much problem its maintenance at the end of the season and thus avoid the same fears as in previous seasons when this team had to take 15th place. This year, he is in 12th place in the standings with 7 points ahead of the first relegation. However, the Bavarians were crossing a bad place with 3 defeats in a row conceded against Augsburg (1-4), Werder Bremen (2-0) and Bayern Munich (0-1). But last week, they revived against Union Berlin (2-1).
The workforce for Borussia Dortmund vs Augsburg
In Dortmund, the experienced Schmelzer, the Belgian winger Hazard, the Belgian international Witsel and the potentially titular centre-back Zagadou are still stuck in the infirmary. On the other hand, midfielder Delaney is back from suspension. Despite the loss to Gladbach last weekend, the Norwegian Haaland has found his way twice again and is alone 2nd in the Bundesliga scorers’ standings with 14 goals.
Important Augsburg holders Framberger, Vargas and Moravek and substitute Götze are not expected to make the trip to Signal Iduna Park on Saturday. Not very effective this year, striker Niederlechner scored his first 2 goals of the season against Berlin last week.
