With today being April 1, jokes are once again making their way into everyday life. This month, however, things are getting serious for Borussia Dortmund’s various football teams, who are entering the final stretch of their season. Here is the schedule for BVB’s first team in the Bundesliga, the women’s team in the Regionalliga West, and the U23 in the men’s division at the same level.
Salih Özcan and Daniel Svensson celebrated qualifying for the World Cup yesterday with the national teams of Turkey and Sweden. So there was likely plenty of celebrating. Even so, the next task is already coming up quickly for them, just as it is for the rest of Niko Kovac’s squad.
On Saturday, 4 April, BVB will once again play the featured match of the matchday, away at VfB Stuttgart. Kickoff is therefore at 6:30 p.m. In the first half of the season, the Swabians were one of the few teams to take a point in Dortmund in a 3-3 draw. At the moment, BVB are the best team of the second half of the season, having picked up 25 points. But things are also going very well for VfB, who are third with 21 points.
The professionals’ next match in April is also a home game on a Saturday, against Bayer Leverkusen on 11 April at 3:30 p.m. In the league, BVB had won 2-1 in Leverkusen, but then lost 1-0 at home to the same opponents in the DFB Cup round of 16.
This is followed, at the same kickoff time, by the away game at TSG Hoffenheim on Saturday, 18 April, who, like Bayer Leverkusen, are currently one of the league’s top teams – behind FC Bayern and BVB. In the second half of the season, however, TSG have already suffered a few setbacks. Back in December, BVB beat Hoffenheim 2-0 at home.
Borussia Dortmund’s final opponent in April is SC Freiburg, who will in turn be welcomed to Signal Iduna Park. The date is Sunday, 26 April, and the match kicks off at 5:30 p.m. In the first half of the season, the teams drew 1-1 in Freiburg.

For the BVB women, who since the antepenultimate matchday can once again reach the top of the table under their own steam, the schedule looks like this:
Sunday, 12 April, 1:00 p.m. GSV Moers (A) Sunday, 19 April, 3:00 p.m. Arminia Bielefeld (H) Sunday, 26 April, 1:00 p.m. DJK Wacker Mecklenbeck (A)
The men’s second team faces the following schedule in the Regionalliga West, where they currently sit in 5th place. Right at the start of April, things get tough with the league leaders coming to Stadion Rote Erde. On top of that, the pace is quite intense for BVB’s U23 due to several rescheduled matches:
Saturday, 4 April, 2:00 p.m. Fortuna Köln (H) Wednesday, 8 April, 7:00 p.m. Sportfreunde Siegen (A) Wednesday, 15 April, 5:00 p.m. Borussia Mönchengladbach II (A) Saturday, 18 April, 2:00 p.m. SV Rödinghausen (H) Wednesday, 22 April, 7:30 p.m. SSVg Velbert (A) Saturday, 25 April, 2:00 p.m. 1. FC Bocholt (A)
