Pre-Match Report

Countdown Wolfsburg: Schlotterbeck to start

Borussia Dortmund will face VfL Wolfsburg on Sunday. Kick-off is at the unusual time of 19:30 CEST. We have compiled all the info on our Bundesliga home game in a compact format. This page will be updated if there is any news.

Starting line-up: Nico Schlotterbeck is back in the squad – and in the starting line-up
Nico Schlotterbeck is in the squad for the Bundesliga match against Wolfsburg. This is the first time the centre-back has been included in the Black & Yellows' squad since suffering a torn meniscus in April. On Friday, the defensive player had already completed a full team training session. BVB coach Niko Kovac is putting Schlotterbeck straight into the starting line-up, with Yan Couto moving to the bench. Otherwise, Borussia will line up as they did against Juventus.

Referee: Siebert to take charge
Daniel Siebert, a 41-year-old teacher from Berlin, will referee the match. Jan Seidel and Rafael Foltyn will assist on the touchlines. Harm Osmers will be the fourth official. Benjamin Cortus will be the VAR. Siebert has been a FIFA referee since 2014 and cites sport and travel as his main interests. He refereed BVB for the first time on 12 September 2015, when Borussia won 4-2 in Hanover. He has refereed a total of 30 league matches involving BVB (20 wins, five draws, five defeats). He last refereed BVB in April in their 3-2 win against Gladbach. He has already refereed four matches between BVB and VfL, all of them in Wolfsburg. Borussia won the three Bundesliga away games, but lost 1-0 after extra time in the DFB Cup under Siebert's supervision.

Travel: Ticket included in your ticket
This service from BVB and DSW21 continues to be unique in the Bundesliga. The admission ticket to SIGNAL IDUNA PARK entitles you to an outbound and homeward journey in the entire state of NRW. This also applies to holders of plastic season ticket cards. Holders of a “print@home ticket” or a “mobile ticket” (for example, Apple Wallet) need to have a public transport ticket, which can be ordered online free of charge on this site, in addition to their match ticket.

Tickets: Secondary Market open
This home game is also sold out, with the lower tiers set to be entirely Black & Yellow. Wolfsburg will only be supported by 750 travelling fans. The Secondary Market will be open until 17:00 CEST on game day. It offers ticket holders a legal way to sell on their season or match tickets via the BVB Ticket Shop if they are unable to attend the match at SIGNAL IDUNA PARK in person. The ticket holder does not need to hand over their match ticket or their season ticket because the tickets can be blocked electronically and subsequently released again. The Secondary Ticket Market is available for all sold-out home games.

Live broadcast: DAZN & Net Radio
The match can be watched live on DAZN. The pre-match coverage will start at 18:30 CEST with Lukas Schönmüller as presenter and Tobias Schweinsteiger as pundit.

Maximilian Beier returned to the bench. Emre Can, Julian Ryerson, Carney Chukwuemeka and Serhou Guirassy joined the team. <\/p>\nTactics:  <\/b>As in the Champions League, BVB started with two strikers (Fabio Silva alongside Guirassy) and a number 10, with Chukwuemeka primarily operating from the inside-left. In the four-strong midfield line behind them, Ryerson moved to the left side. Freiburg also met Dortmund's 3-4-1-2 with a back three or back five. Both attacked high and the two sides gave each other hardly any air to breathe in the first 30 minutes. Ginter was always close to Guirassy, Jung moved out of the back line when Fabio Silva dropped deep, which the Dortmund player often did, receiving balls in the middle of the park. Borussia came forward mainly down the right wing, via the agile Couto.<\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2025/12/14/bl-spielbericht/14-Freiburg-1.jpg\" data-assetref=\"14-Freiburg-1-1765726138427\"><\/p>\nThe match & analysis: \n <\/b>From the very first minute on, the match was played at a high intensity. After just ten minutes, Couto and Manzambi saw yellow cards for a tussle on the touchline. There were also fiery scenes on the pitch: Guirassy headed a well-timed Fabio Silva cross just past the left post in the 9th minute, and shortly afterwards, Manzambi beat Can around the left hand corner of the six yard box, but he did not get enough behind his shot, meaning that Kobel could easily stop it on 9 minutes.<\/p>\nBorussia Dortmund had enjoyed 66 percent of the possession in the first 20 minutes \u2013 and also carved out the first big chance. After a one-two with Guirassy, Chukwuemeka took aim from an acute angle, but his shot hit the side netting in the 21st minute. Shortly afterwards, Can earned the chance to open the scoring as a result of some high pressing, which caused Freiburg to lose the ball in their half, but his shot from 17 metres was not accurate or powerful enough on 24 minutes. After exactly half an hour, the Black & Yellows were rewarded for their courageous performance: Couto struck a free kick from the right side into the box, Bensebaini chested the ball down and prodded it over the line to make it 1-0 in the 31st minute. Even though BVB was clearly in the driver\u2019s seat, Freiburg consistently looked dangerous on the counter, and shortly before the break, Günter had his side\u2019s third and best chance to score an equaliser, but the hosts\u2019 captain fired horribly wide in the 45th minute.<\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2025/12/14/bl-spielbericht/14-Freiburg-4.jpg\" data-assetref=\"14-Freiburg-4-1765726122396\"><\/p>\nEight minutes after the restart, Jobe Bellingham saw a red card. After a risky pass from Kobel, the Englishman tried to put his body in the way 19 metres out in front of his own goal, but caught Treu, who was bursting forward at pace, and was given his marching orders by referee Zwayer for preventing a clear goalscoring opportunity. It was Bellingham\u2019s first foul in the game. Günter fired the resulting free kick just past the left-hand post.<\/p>\nBVB responded to going a man down by bringing on Pascal Groß for Fabio Silva, and had hardly any extended periods of possession thereafter. The match took place almost entirely in the Dortmund half. Kobel brilliantly tipped a follow-up shot from Treu around the post in the 69th minute, and also showed strong reactions to save Suzuki\u2019s shot, which had taken a wicked deflection off Bensebaini, in the 74th minute. But 60 seconds later, Freiburg were celebrating the equaliser Höler did well to get on the end of Günter\u2019s cross and finished brilliantly, finding the far post. Freiburg had 11 shots to BVB\u2019s 0 after the red card and thought they'd made it 2-1, but Matanovic\u2019s goal did not count as he was ruled offside on 86 minutes.<\/p>\nOutlook:<\/b>   \nIn the last game of 2025, Borussia Dortmund will face Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday (kick-off: 20:30 CET).
