1) Yellow Wall more solid than ever
Dortmund have experienced a striking difference in home and away form in the current campaign. With Bayern making the trip to North Rhine-Westphalia, the Black and Yellows can focus on the positive side of that coin - a remarkable 100 percent home record in all competitions at Signal Iduna Park.
The cauldron-like atmosphere has long been a big asset for Borussia - having over 81,000 fans, the highest average attendance in world football, roaring you on could hardly fail to give you a lift as a footballer, after all.
Some 26 goals scored and just seven conceded in their eight straight home wins to start the season with has shown that Şahin's side can always be counted on to get the job done in front of their famously passionate home fans. League leaders Bayern are sure to provide the biggest test to Dortmund's immaculate home record, yet the fans will also be at their nosiest as they aim to cheer their side to their first home Klassiker win in the Bundesliga in over six years.
