Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund last five H2Hs
Borussia Dortmund 0-4 Bayern Munich – 4th November 2023
The most recent Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund H2H came in November 2023 when Bayern steamrolled die Schwarzgelben in their own backyard. Dayot Upemecano and Harry Kane gave the visitors the best possible start to put them 2-0 up after ten minutes and the match was very easy for Bayern from there on out due to their counter-attacking prowess. Kane scored two more goals in the second half to earn Bayern a famous victory and himself the match ball in his Der Klassiker debut.
Bayern Munich 4-2 Borussia Dortmund – 1st April 2023
Bayern and Dortmund played out a six-goal thriller at the Allianz Arena in April 2023 in the type of match that has become the norm for this fixture. Bayern found themselves 4-0 after 50 minutes thanks to a double from Thomas Muller, an own goal from Gregor Kobel and a strike from Kingsley Coman. Dortmund didn't give in, though, and brought two goals back via Emre Can and Donyell Malen – unfortunately for them, there wasn't enough time to complete a historic comeback.
Borussia Dortmund 2-2 Bayern Munich – 8th October 2022
In October 2022, Borussia Dortmund drew 2-2 with Bayern Munich at Signal Iduna Park. Once again, it was Bayern who started off the stronger of the two sides and found themselves 2-0 up thanks to goals from Leon Goretzka and Leroy Sane but Dortmund refused to back down. Youssoufa Moukoku brought one back late on before Anthony Modeste scored in the dying minutes to earn the home side a valuable point.
Bayern Munich 3-1 Borussia Dortmund – 23rd April 2022
Bayern enjoyed a famous night against Borussia Dortmund in April 2022 when they defeated their old rivals 3-1 at the Allianz Arena to wrap up the league title – their tenth consecutive Bundesliga triumph. Serge Gnabry and Robert Lewandowski put Bayern 2-0 up (a common theme in recent Der Klassikers) before Emre Can brought Dortmund right back into it from the penalty spot. The win and league title were secured when Jamal Musiala made it 3-1 in the 83rd minute.
Borussia Dortmund 2-3 Bayern Munich – 4th December 2021
Another Der Klassiker as Signal Iduna Park and another goalfest. For a change, Borussia Dortmund took the lead in this one through Julian Brandt in the 5th minute but by half time, the away side had turned the game on its head and led 2-1. Erling Haaland levelled things up shortly after the break before Robert Lewandowski won the match from the penalty spot in the 77th minute.
Potential MVP – Harry Kane
Harry Kane has had a phenomenal first season at Bayern Munich on a personal level, scoring 37 goals and providing ten assists in all competitions. Despite such an impressive return there is a very real chance that Kane will once again endure a trophyless campaign unless the German side can produce the goods in Europe.
Kane has played in one Der Klassiker already this season and scored a hat-trick so the Borussia Dortmund defence will not be looking forward to seeing him again. He is also nice and refreshed coming into this one after sitting out the international break.
