It was almost another goal for Moukoko right at the death but he didn't quite connect with his shot from in front of goal and Müller makes the save.

HALF-CHANCES GALORE

Dortmund just can't create a clear-cut chance on goal here as we enter the final 15 minutes. Bellingham is pushing forward from midfield to help as well, but Freiburg are looking solid still.

CHANGES FOR BOTH SIDES

Reinier comes on for Reyna while the Bundesliga's best super-sub is on, Petersen replacing Demirovic and Haberer for Jeong.

INTO THE FINAL 20...

Dortmund are dominating possession and pushing the ball forward quickly, but chances have still been hard to come by. Meanwhile, Freiburg are looking to work with the counter-attack when they can.

FREIBURG MOOD!

Are the Black Forest club heading for a first win over Dortmund under Christian Streich?

SANCHO SHOT BLOCKED

Dortmund are pressing now as Reyna slots the ball to Sancho alongside him in the Freiburg area, but his shot is blocked away from in front of goal.
63'

MOUKOKO HITS THE POST!

What a bit of play from the 16-year-old as he pushes the ball past Lienhart on the edge of the Freiburg box before firing at goal. It's a low shot back across goal the other way, and it clips the outside of the post before going wide.

DOUBLE CHANGE

Captain Reus is off with 30 minutes to play, as well as Delaney, with Dahoud and Moukoko now on to try and bring Dortmund back into this one.

JEONG RUNNING THE SHOW

The playmaker has now scored in two home matches in a row and he's enjoying this second half so far. He's finding space both centrally and out wide, and is the perfect player to link up play.
56'

UP AGAINST IT NOW

There's plenty of time on the clock, but Dortmund could not have made a worse start to this second half here. Freiburg are feeling very good about themselves but BVB have recovered in the last few minutes and are beginning to push on themselves.
52'

SCHMID MAKES IT TWO!

Freiburg can smell blood and they have taken advantage here by doubling their lead within three minutes. Grifo's shot is blocked wide to Schmid who smashes the ball at the near post from the corner of the penalty area. Hitz gets his hand to the ball but it bounces between him and the post and into the back of the net. A nightmare for him, but Freiburg in dream land!

JEONG WITH THE OPENER!

What a way to open the scoring in Freiburg by Jeong. Grifo finds the South Korean in space outside the Dortmund penalty area and he fires a left-footed shot at goal from 25 yards out. There's nothing Hitz can do about this with the power behind the strike taking the ball home.

BRANDT HAS A GO

The midfielder dribbles beyond Santamaria after a fine first touch before shooting at goal from 20 yards out. Müller saves this one, grabbing the ball at the second attempt having parried it up into the air.
35'

LOOKING FOR IDEAS

Dortmund are controlling the possession here but can't find a way through Freiburg like they did in the opening 15 minutes. Akanji fires a shot wide of goal from distance in frustration. A few linking passes between Brandt, Sancho and Reus just haven't come off in the last few minutes.
32'

KNOCK FOR REUS

A heavy challenge with Schlotterbeck has Reus down at the moment, but it looks like the BVB captain should be able to continue.

JEONG FINDING SPACE

The Freiburg forward has been fantastic in finding space between the Dortmund midfield and defence so far. He's been the key to creating chances for the home side, linking play with his fellow attackers and the advancing full-backs.
23'

HAALAND ON TARGET

Reyna dribbles into the Freiburg box before finding Haaland to his right. It's an awkward angle for him to shoot from but it's on his left so he does have a go. He can't get enough power on this effort to trouble Müller, though.
22'

DORTMUND TAKING CONTROL

It was a frantic opening with both sides having chances, but in the last few minutes, it has been Dortmund taking more and more control of the game. Possession up the pitch has been easy for them to come by.

FANTASTIC START IN FREIBURG!

16'

HIGH-PACED START

The ball is going from one end to the other swiftly so far in Freiburg with both sides having an 'attack-first' mindset.
13'

HAALAND SO CLOSE!

What a fantastic piece of goalkeeping from Florian Müller to deny Erling Haaland. Dortmund break with Reyna down the right clipping a cross to the back post for Haaland to meet. He slides and puts the ball on target from two yards out, but Müller is right there to beat the ball away off his own goalline.
12'

NOT FAR AWAY!

Grifo's free-kick is met by Höfler at the back post of the Dortmund box and he heads the ball back across goal. It bounces past a few bodies but no Freiburg player is in the right place to meet it and bury the chance.

BIG CHANCE!

Jeong is found in a pocket of space just outside the Dortmund area and fires low at goal. Hitz can't hold onto the shot, and Demirovic is on the rebound but with Akanji close behind him he fires his effort wide from close range.
7'

BRANDT PUSHING FORWARD

Delaney is being left alone in the defensive midfield role for Dortmund. Brandt is pushing up the pitch to make it a four-man attack in support of Haaland up front.
5'

OFF THE BAR!

What a hit from Emre Can who finds space cutting inside from right-back. He unleashes a powerful left-footed strike which beats Müller but bounces up and over off the crossbar. What a start that would have been!
3'

JEONG CENTRAL

It's the South Korean forward who is in the No.10 role by the looks of things here early on. He has Grifo to his left and Höler to his right, with Demerovic leading the line. But Freiburg's frontline is interchanging all the time already.

Kick-off!

TALE OF THE TAPE

Dortmund are right in the middle of the chasing pack for Champions League places at the moment. Just three points separate 7th and 3rd, with BVB sitting in 6th. A win today could see them jump up to 3rd above Wolfsburg depending on results, but BVB will simply be keen to get the maximum points they can. Freiburg are just five points behind Dortmund with hopes of a European push still in sight if they can begin to find consistent form once again.

CAN GRIFO REDISCOVER HIS FORM?

Grifo is without a goal in five since netting his seventh of the campaign in the Matchday 14 win at Hoffenheim, while Nils Petersen has scored four of his seven as a substitute.

THE SANLING SHOW?

Haaland is third in the current Bundesliga scoring charts, but second best for minutes per goal (84) behind Robert Lewandowski (63). Sancho failed to score in the first 13 matches of the season, but has struck three times in six games in 2021.

HOME COMFORTS?

After winning a club record five Bundesliga games in a row, Freiburg have taken maximum points once across their last four. They are unbeaten in six at home, though. While Dortmund have lost three of their last four away league games.

WATCH: DORTMUND 4-0 FREIBURG - LAST TIME OUT

Gio Reyna became the youngest player in Bundesliga history with a hat-trick of assists as Dortmund put four past Freiburg in the reverse fixture this season.

FREIBURG TEAM NEWS

Demirovic will get help from Vincenzo Grifo, Wooyeong Jeong and Lucas Höler in attack with Roland Sallai out with an ankle problem. Nils Petersen is another option in attack, but the Bundesliga's record scorer from the bench has been a sub in each of his last seven appearances and it stays the same today.

BVB TEAM NEWS

Julian Brandt started in central midfield last weekend and keeps his place ahead of Jude Bellingham, while Emre Can is in at right-back. First-choice goalkeeper Roman Bürki remains out with a shoulder injury, meaning Swiss compatriot Marwin Hitz keeps his place.
