CAIRO – 04 November 2017:The great Bundesliga clash of recent years returns to the scene this Saturday in Dortmund, where Borussia Dortmund hosts the giants Bayern Munich of Jupp Heynckes in a key game at Signal Iduna Park stadium at 7:30 pm Cairo Local Time.

If the veteran coach of the Bavarians (Bayern Munich), wins the “Westfalenstadion” clash, he will have converted a five-point gap to Dortmund by a six-point lead in only three weeks. "We have great ambitions, we want to continue the winning streak," Heynckes said Friday.

Since the German took the job of coaching Bayern, replacing Carlo Ancelotti, his team has won three Bundesliga games, two Champions League games, and has passed to the next round in the German Cup after eliminating RB Leipzig on penalties.

The main event at Bayern is the reappearance of Polish striker Robert Lewandowski, recovered from a muscle injury that caused him to miss the second part of last Saturday's game in the Bundesliga against RB Leipzig and the journey to Glasgow, Scotland to play against Celtic in the Champions League.

"Robert has recharged his forces and is very motivated," Heynckes said about the former Dortmund player. Peter Bosz, Dortmund`s coach, has more difficulty in Dortmund as Marco Reus, Lukasz Piszcek, Sebastian Rode, and Eric Durm are injured and Dan-Axel Zafgadou is suspended.

The participation of Mario Götze, André Schürrle and Raphael Guerreiro is more than likely. "Maybe this match will come at the right time. We can turn this around if we win, we are leaders again, but if we are not brave we will not have options, "Bosz said.
This is the expected line-up for each team:

Borussia Dortmund: (GK) Bürki, (DEF) Bartra, Sokratis, Toprak, Schmelzer, (MID) Gonzalo Castro, Weigl, Götze, (ATT) Yarmolenko, Aubameyang and Philipp
Bayern Munich: (GK) Ulreich, (DEF) Kimmich, Boateng, Hummels, Alaba, (MID) Javi Martínez, Rudy, Thiago, (ATT) Robben, Coman; and Lewandowski.
