Bundesliga Action Returns on Friday with Hamburg v Borussia Dortmund

Published on November 18th, 2015 10:16 pm EST
After a long period away, Bundesliga action returns on Friday with a contest between Hamburg and Borussia Dortmund.

Borussia Dortmund is desperately trying to keep pace with Bayern Munich at the top of the table. After 12 games, Bayern Munich currently sits with 34 points, while Borussia Dortmund currently has 29 points. There is a big gulf between Borussia Dortmund and the third place team, which means that the race for the Bundesliga title is likely going to boil down to just two teams.

Hamburg, on the other hand, currently sits in the middle of the table with a record of 4-3-5. While Hamburg certainly has a decent gap between themselves and the teams who are currently marked for relegation, a win on Friday would certainly help them stay in Bundesliga after this year.

Hamburg has won just once over their past four games, while Dortmund is a perfect 4-0. After suffering an embarrassing 5-1 defeat to Bayern Munich about a month ago, Borussia Dortmund has seemingly turned things around.

Hamburg has not won at home over their last four matches, while Borussia Dortmund is 2-1-1 away from home over their past four games.

Hamburg has had an exceedingly difficult time scoring goals so far this season, as they have notched just 11 tallies so far this year. Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, has scored 35 times so far this year.
