Bundesliga News - 2022/2023 Matchday 19

Augsburg’s Mergim Berisha scored for a third consecutive game to drive his club to a 1:0 win on Friday over visitors Bayer 04 Leverkusen. Berisha’s goal came in the match’s 55th minute, when Arne Engels’s corner from the right found Berisha unmarked, who headed the ball in from the edge of the box. The goal was Berisha’s sixth of the season, five of which have come on home turf. Augsburg have lost just one of five home games in which Berisha has scored. On Saturday, many Bundesliga fans will be watching the contest between hosts Borussia Dortmund and visitors Sport-Club Freiburg. The two clubs occupy the fourth and fifth berths in the table and are tied on points, with 34 apiece. The hosts are currently enjoying a 3-match winning streak to start 2023, and the streak is due in part to the scoring prowess of Jude Bellingham, who donned the captain’s armband in Leverkusen. The club’s normal captain, Marco Reus, has returned to fitness and is expected to start on Saturday. Freiburg are coming off a 6:0 loss to Wolfsburg, a 1:1 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt, and a 3:1 win over Augsburg. Freiburg will likely see the return of top scorer Vincenzo Grifo, who has recovered from an illness that restricted him to two substitute outings. Freiburg does not have a good record in Dortmund: the Breisgauer have won just one of their last fifteen Bundesliga matches at Signal Iduna Park, while losing thirteen and drawing one. The late match on Saturday will be that between hosts Borussia Mönchengladbach and nearby rivals FC Schalke 04. The Foals scored their first away win of the season last weekend at Hoffenheim, a win that lifted the club up to eighth place and closer to qualification for European competition. Jonas Hofmann was the star performer of that match, with two goals and one assist. The club has won six of nine league games at Borussia-Park this season, but will likely forgo the services of captain Lars Stindl, who is suffering from a back problem. Schalke continue to struggle this season, having accumulated just ten points. Schalke have also managed just two goals in their last five outings, and just fourteen goals all season. The season’s earlier fixture between the two clubs, however, ended in a draw. Looking ahead to Sunday, competition will wrap up this weekend when Wolfsburg host Bayern München. Wolfsburg were on a ten-match unbeaten streak before losing to Bremen last weekend, while Bayern are looking to protect their slender lead at the top of the table.
