BVB v Rasenballsport Leipzig: Predicted line-ups | OneFootball

Rarely seen as one of the most powerful clubs in the Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund is playing at the classic Bundesliga kickoff time today: Saturday at 3:30 p.m. The guests at Signal Iduna Park are the Saxons from Rasenballsport Leipzig, against whom the Black and Yellows often struggle. Here's how the two teams are expected to line up today.

BVB continues to enjoy a fantastic run in the Bundesliga: they have achieved four victories without conceding a goal, and are unbeaten in thirteen matches.

Coach Niko Kovac now only has to do without a trio, which consists of:

The specialist magazine Kicker predicts the following starting eleven, which would contradict its own assessment that Marcel Sabitzer is currently a very important factor:

Gregor Kobel – Waldemar Anton, Nico Schlotterbeck, Ramy Bensebaini – Yan Couto, Pascal Groß, Felix Nmecha, Daniel Svensson – Karim Adeyemi, Julian Brandt – Serhou Guirassy

Another victory without conceding a goal would mean a new club record for Borussia Dortmund with the fifth in a row.

Can BVB achieve another victory without conceding a goal?

This goal, to continue without conceding a goal, will not be easy against RB Leipzig, who have scored at least one goal in their last eight games in Dortmund. The only time they failed to do so was in their first appearance in Dortmund in February 2017, when they lost 0:1.

Today, the following players will be missing from the visitors' attempt to continue their own streak and thus end that of the Dortmund team.

Again, Kicker sees Rasenballsport starting with the following eleven:

Peter Gulacsi – Ridle Baku, Willi Orban, Castello Lukeba, David Raum – Nikolas Seiwald – Ezechiel Banzuzi, Christoph Baumgartner – Johan Bakayoko, Romulo, Yan Diomande

At the bookmakers, Borussia Dortmund is quite clearly the favorite to win. The odds for a bet on this outcome are around 1.66. For a victory of the guests, these are between 4.20 and 4.35.

Last season, BVB won 2:1 at home, but lost 0:2 away on March 15, 2025 – the last defeat of the Westphalians in the Bundesliga.
