LEV Vs DOR Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Borussia Dortmund visit a tricky opposition today as they look to keep their winning spree intact.
With just the three points separating third placed Borussia Dortmund and leaders Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund will be well aware that the title is wide open as of now. They are one of the three sides in with a shot of wiping away with the glistening trophy under their arms in a Bundesliga title fight which is tantalising poised as things stand.
And with a 5-0 win in their artillery when they took on Union Berlin in their most recent encounter, Borussia Dortmund make an advent into today’s tie with immense momentum in their ranks. They are one of the finest attacking units in the league, with an astounding 56 goals hit past their opponents with extremely pleasing to the eye displays seeing them set a statement of intent this season.
They will face a testing time though today with Bayer Leverkusen in 5th place making for more than capable opponents. Although the side’s three match winning spree was curtailed the last time around as they were putdown 2-1 by Hoffenheim, they are still more than capable of perturbing Borussia Dortmund in a tie which looks set to be decided by extremely fine margins.
Probable Winner
As Borussia Dortmund go all out in this tie, they will come across a testing and resilient Bayer Leverkusen defence on the day. However, Borussia Dortmund will have more than enough in their repertoire of attacking acumen to leave their opposition in angst and accrue the three points from the outing.

LEV Vs DOR Dream11 Goal-Keeper
Lukas Hradecky will be finding a place in our Dream 11 side for this encounter. He’s taken centrestage in his side’s defensive gameplan, a player whose immense traits as a shot stopper have seen him pull off a slew of match winning displays for his side.
LEV Vs DOR Dream11 Defenders
After having let in the 3 goals in their domestic tournamnet tie previously, Borussia Dortmund’s defence is not one we will be reposing faith in on the day. They are a side way too vulnerable to letting in goals, a side which will be minced atleast once by Bayer Leverkusen today.
It sees us limit ourselves to just Achraf Hakimi for this fixture while from the other side of the unit we are moving in for a duo. In Jonathan Tah and Daley Sinkgraven, the side have two indomitable and dauntless players, names who’ll be embedding in place a haord of tackles and blocks on the day.
LEV Vs DOR Dream11 Midfielders
With 4 goals and 9 assists in his artillery in the ongoing edition of the league, Thorgan Hazard becomes the first player to be picked up by us for this encounter. With Borussia Dortmund having torched their way to 56 goals, it was only befitting of us to get in both Julian Brandt and Raphael Guerreiro as well, two players who have been instrumental in the side making things so dreary for their opponents.
Elsewhere, it’s just the one pick from the other side of the component with us moving in for the myriad Kai Havertz.
LEV Vs DOR Dream11 Strikers
He’s only played a handful of games for Borussia Dortmund but the 7 goals new signing Erling Haaland has accrued in that time has shown why the club moved to indulge in his services. Borussia Dortmund’s top scorer with the 12 goals and 12 assists, Jaden Sancho is being brought in as well by us while from Bayern Leverkusen, their top scorer with 7 goals and 6 assists, Kevin Volland completes our team for the encounter.
Captain And Vice-Captain
