The Meisterschale remains up for grabs in what is being hailed as the most competitive Bundesliga season in twenty years. Bayern Munich's narrow victory last weekend kept them at the summit, but Borussia Dortmund's relentless pressing has them breathing down the champions' necks. "We are the hunters, and we like it that way," noted the BVB manager.
Further down the table, the race for the final Champions League spot is equally frantic. RB Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt are locked in a tactical stalemate, with both teams favoring a high-intensity transition game that has led to some of the highest 'Expected Goals' (xG) figures in the league.
