Of the many highlights on the Bundesliga calendar, the classic between FC Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund is right at the top. Here’s when Germany’s top two teams will meet in the 2022/23 – Season .
The 2022/23 Bundesliga – Season is just four weeks old and the two strongest German clubs of recent years are once again to be found quite high up in the table. Above all, however, champion FC Bayern Munich has gotten off to a brilliant start. Four games, three wins and 16 goals scored mean that they currently lead the table. Coach Julian Nagelsmann’s team lost its only point against Borussia Mönchengladbach, but it needed a historic performance from Gladbach goalkeeper Yann Sommer.
By contrast, things aren’t going quite as smoothly at runners-up Borussia Dortmund. Although they are in a solid fifth place after four matchdays and have only one point less than Bayern, their performance on the pitch is in need of improvement. The late 3-2 defeat to promoted Werder Bremen was particularly bitter.
Nevertheless, the matches between FC Bayern and BVB, also known as classics, provide a great spectacle at least twice during the – Season , attracting fans from all over the country.
But when will the rivals meet in the 2022/23 – Season ? SPOX has the answer.
