The division’s two best attacking sides square off

As a result of their outstanding performance in the last match against Atletico Madrid, Dortmund secured a place in the semi-finals of the Champions League and will face PSG. In their last league outing, they beat M’gladbach 1-2 with a Sabitzer brace, levelling them on points with fourth-placed RB Leipzig. A win here could push them back in contention for the Champions League.

In an emphatic manner, Bayern Leverkusen have broken the hoodoo of Bayern Munich to become champions. As well as being in the Europa League semi-final after playing a draw against Hammers in the second leg, Frimpong ensures their unbeaten streak continues and they are looking forward to the DFB Pokal final. If Xabi’s team wins all the matches, they could do a historic treble.
