On the 15th of December, Borussia Dortmund will host Greuther Fürth at Signal-iduna-park in a clash of these two extremely mismatched Bundesliga teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 5 degrees, making for an unpleasant day. Borussia Dortmund is fresh off their 1-1 draw against Bochum. Sebastian Polter struck first for Bochum in the 40th minute on a penalty shot, but Julian Brandt got the equalizer for Borussia Dortmund in the 85th minute on a penalty shot squeezing out at least the one point for Borussia Dortmund. Borussia Dortmund should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 19 points in their last 10 matches, while 18th placed Greuther Fürth is fresh off their 1-7 blowout loss against Bayer Leverkusen. Amine Adli scored the first goal for Bayer Leverkusen in the 12th minute, then Edmond Tapsoba added another in the 17th minute. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 10 of their last 10.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season.
Greuther Fürth’s top weapon lately has been Leweling, who has two goals in the last five matches. Erling Braut Håland has been on a hot streak lately. In the last 5 games, the attacker has scored four goals for Borussia Dortmund
