Borussia Dortmund will take on Augsburg in the Bundesliga at the Signal Iduna Park on Saturday. With three games to go in the ongoing season, fifth-placed Dortmund are chasing the top four. They are five points behind fourth-placed RB Leipzig. Augsburg are down in eighth place and will be hoping to claim the final European spot.
Dortmund have lost only one out of their last five games and will be confident of claiming the three points on offer at home. They are heading into this game on the back of a win over PSG in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final, and they will be riding on that confidence. Augsburg will find the contest difficult as they have only won one out of their last five fixtures.
