Unbeaten Dortmund confident ahead of trip to ‘unique’ Bayern, says Kovac
BERLIN: Borussia Dortmund’s undefeated run has filled the team with confidence ahead of Der Klassiker at champions Bayern Munich on Saturday despite the hosts’ impressive 10-match winning streak in all competitions, coach Niko Kovac said on Thursday. Kovac, who took over in the middle of last season, has seen Dortmund go unbeaten in Germany and Europe this term. They sit second in the Bundesliga, four points behind Bayern. “We are solid at the moment and that is the basis if you want to have any success. Of course we know the form of Bayern — 10 wins from 10 games (across all competitions),” Kovac told a press conference in Dortmund. “We are on 2.3 points per game (on average) which is pretty good but they are on three points.
