Borussia Dortmund (BVB) had a tough week in their football campaigns. They not only bowed out of the UEFA Champions League but also dropped points in the Bundesliga for the first time since the beginning of the year, drawing with Schalke 04. This has raised concerns regarding their ability to keep up with Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich.
However, BVB now has a chance for redemption as they prepare to play against 1. FC Köln on Saturday evening. A win is crucial for them to maintain pressure on Bayern Munich who are currently just two points ahead of them. For Köln, the stakes are even higher, as they are in danger of slipping into the relegation battle.
The good news for Dortmund is that their national player and captain, Marco Reus, will be back in action after missing out on the Schalke game due to an infection. Head coach Edin Terzic confirmed Reus’ return to the squad during a press conference.
Dortmund vs. Köln is set to be a thrilling match, with both teams needing a victory. Fans can follow the game live on a ticker, as BVB tries to close the gap with Bayern Munich, and Köln frantically fights for points to avoid relegation woes.
