Dortmund ready to open up gap with win over Bochum


The Bundesliga title race is heating up with five games remaining, and Borussia Dortmund are in the driving seat. They are currently one point ahead of Bayern Munich, and a win in their next match against VfL Bochum would see them move four points clear.




BERLIN (Reuters) - Borussia Dortmund are in the driving seat to win their first Bundesliga title in more than a decade with five games remaining and victory at VfL Bochum in the mini Ruhr derby on Friday could see them move a provisional four points clear at the top.

Dortmund have been in excellent form in recent weeks, winning 11 of their last 14 league matches. They have also scored 39 goals in those matches, which is more than any other team in the league.

Bayern Munich, on the other hand, have been struggling in recent weeks. They have lost two of their last three league matches, and they were also knocked out of the Champions League by Villarreal.

Bayern will need to improve their form if they want to win the title. They have a tough match against Hertha Berlin next, and they will need to be at their best if they want to win.

Union Berlin are third in the table, and they are also in contention for a Champions League spot. They have been in good form in recent weeks, and they have a home match against Bayer Leverkusen next.




Leverkusen are sixth in the table, but they are only three points behind Union Berlin. They have also been in good form in recent weeks, and they will be looking to get a win against Union Berlin to move into third place.

The Bundesliga title race is still wide open, and anything can happen in the remaining five games. Dortmund are the favorites, but Bayern Munich and Union Berlin are also in contention. It should be an exciting finish to the season.
