ESPN is bringing the second edition of Der Klassiker between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund this weekend to US TV with big-time coverage. The main ESPN channel will have a live broadcast of the game. Also, shoulder coverage on either side will get fans ready for what could be a pivotal game for the Bundesliga title race.
Bayern Munich, the winner of the last 11 Bundesliga titles, trails Bayer Leverkusen by 10 points with eight games in the league remaining. The German giants are desperate for results to keep pace with a Bayer Leverkusen side that has not lost a game across all competitions this season. Meanwhile, Borussia Dortmund, a team that is familiar with second in the Bundesliga is clinging to fourth in the German table. The yellow and black club leads RB Leipzig by just one point for that ever-valuable Champions League spot.
The necessity for points promises an exciting game upon the return of the March international break. Yet, neutral fans will hope it is closer than Munich’s 4-0 drubbing of their rivals on the road earlier in the season.
