Borussia Dortmund will entertain Freiburg at Signal Iduna Park in the Bundesliga on Sunday. Dortmund are second in the standings and have just a two-point lead over third-placed RB Leipzig. Breisgau-Brasilianer are seventh with 43 points and are still in contention to secure a direct European spot next season.
Die Schwarzgelben suffered a second consecutive league defeat last week, losing 2-1 away to Hoffenheim. Late drama ensued as Serhou Guirassy equalized for them in the 87th minute, and Andrej Kramarić scored the match-winner for Hoffenheim in the eighth minute of stoppage time from the penalty spot.
Thanks for the submission!
The visitors overcame Heidenheim 2-1 in the Bundesliga last week. They failed to build on that form, and their winning streak across all competitions ended after four games on Thursday, losing 2-1 to Stuttgart in the DFB-Pokal semifinals. Maximilian Eggestein gave them the lead in the 28th minute, and Stuttgart secured a comeback win, including a 119th-minute winner.

Breisgau-Brasilianer have scored at least once in their last eight games and will look to continue that form here. They have scored one goal each in five of their last eight meetings against the hosts.
Max Rosenfelder is back in full training and might start from the bench. Jordy Makengo was injured against Stuttgart on Thursday and is likely to miss this match. Daniel-Kofi Kyereh has been playing with the U-23 side and won’t be risked here.
