Preview: Borussia Dortmund vs. Bayern Munich

The top two in the Bundesliga meet at Signal Iduna Park on Saturday as Borussia Dortmund take on the holders Bayern Munich at home.

Bayern would move seven points clear of their great rivals with victory, and they are certainly in fine form with maximum points from their last four in the league.

The international break came at a good time for Dortmund, who prior to it lost two in a row in all competitions.

With the news that Mats Hummels will be out until the New Year, Jurgen Klopp could hand a start to new signing Manuel Friedrich at centre-back.

Franck Ribery has been ruled out of the game for the visitors, which could see Mario Gotze start against his old side on his return to Signal Iduna Park.
