Borussia Dortmund host RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga on Friday night, as two title contenders, clash at the Signal Iduna Park.
Goal difference alone separates Dortmund and Bayern Munich in 1st, with just five points between all the teams in the top five of the Bundesliga. With just 12 games left, it is set up to be a thrilling end to the campaign.
BVB continued their winning run last time out which stems back to November after Julian Brandt's goal was enough to overcome Hoffenheim. Leipzig come off the back of a 2-1 win against fellow title-chasing side Eintracht Frankfurt.

Key Players
RB Leipzig - Josko Gvardiol
Gvardiol has been making headlines in recent months, with the 21-year-old performing brilliantly of late.
Having helped Croatia to a World Cup Bronze Medal in Qatar, the centre-back has been impressive for Leipzig this season at the back.
He will be a huge part of any points Leipzig manage to claim against Dortmund tomorrow night.
Borussia Dortmund - Julian Brandt
Brandt has made a difference for BVB in recent weeks, with the midfielder getting on the score sheet regularly.
He scored the winner last time out for Terzic's side to ensure they continued their fine form since the World Cup break.
Playing alongside Marco Reus this season, he has excelled in Dortmund's attack. He could be a key figure in Friday night's game.
