His record against the team is positive, with 21 wins, six draws, and ten losses. The experienced referee, who will retire at the end of the season, will be assisted by Christian Leicher and Dr. Martin Thomsen. Pascal Müller will serve as the video assistant referee (VAR). This is Aytekin's first BVB match in almost a year. He refereed BVB's away game in Leverkusen (4-2) on the penultimate matchday of last season. He will now officiate this fixture again, for the fifth time overall.
