A high-profile 2015-2016 Bundesliga season matchup between powerhouse squads VfL Wolfsburg (7-3-4, 25 points) and Borussia Dortmund (10-2-2, 32 points), the current second and third placers, is set at the Volkswagen Arena on December 5, Saturday.
Wolfsburg is coming off a goalless draw with bottom-three team FC Augsburg at the SGL Arena last Sunday, as per Soccerway.
It was a lackluster effort from both squads as the two goalkeepers pull off clean sheets in front of more than 27,000 screaming fans.
The single point salvaged from the game was enough to keep Die Wölfe at the third spot in the league table, seven points behind Dortmund.
Meanwhile, Die Borussen successfully bounced back from a disappointing loss in their previous match, routing lowly team Stuttgart, 4-1, at their home field of Signal Iduna Park also last Sunday, as reported by SkySports.
Gabonese striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had a double at the 19th and 90th+1 minutes, midfielder Gonzalo Castro scored at the 3rd, and Stuttgart defender Georg Niedermeier banked in an own goal at the 65th to complete the Black and Yellows' four-goal haul.
Die Schwaben midfielder Daniel Didavi netted a consolation goal at the 40th to put his team on the board.
The predicted result is a 2-0 victory for Borussia Dortmund. Thomas Tuchel's squad is projected to start a new winning streak starting with this inspiring win over tough team Wolfsburg.
Wolfsburg starting lineup (4-4-2 formation): Benaglio; Trasch, Naldo, Dante, Schafer; Vieirinha, Guilavogui, Arnold, Schurrle; Dost, Kruse
Borussia Dortmund starting lineup (4-3-3 formation): Burki; Piszczek, Papastathopoulos, Bender, Schmelzer; Castro, Gundogan, Kagawa; Mkhitaryan, Aubameyang, Reus
