Bayern Munich defender Holger Badstuber is eagerly anticipating this weekend’s Bundesliga match at home against Borussia Dortmund, and expects a tight encounter at the Allianz Arena.
The Germany international is full of praise for the reigning champions, but has insisted that Bayern will do their utmost to make as few mistakes as possible and come out victorious.
“Dortmund are a fantastic team, but we’re in very good shape. It’ll be a tight, hotly contested game. The little things will decide it,” Badstuber was quoted as saying on the official Bayern website.
“I’m certain we’ll be the team making no mistakes, or fewer decisive errors. And we have to play as a tight unit, we need to come together and work together. That’s the recipe for success.
“The whole thing’s being heavily hyped. I’m trying to shut out all of that and focus completely on the match. That’s part of our craft. But obviously, it’s not just any other Bundesliga fixture, prestige is at stake.”
Saturday’s encounter is scheduled to kick off at 18:30CET.
