Azmoun!
Immediately into the action as he meets a Frimpong cross from the right, but Azmoun plants his header over. Thumbs up from the Iranian for the delivery.

Final push
Alonso sends on centre-forward Azmoun for the final 10 minutes.
76'
Diaby!
Excellent pass between full-back and centre-back from Bakker. It's on Diaby's stronger left and he goes across Kobel. BVB keeper sticks out a leg, though, to divert it away from goal. That's six saves tonight from Kobel.
75'
Bellingham!
Deft header from the midfielder as he runs onto Wolf's curling cross. It's only a matter of inches wide of the far post.

It's about the quality of chances
xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals> xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals> goals).

Brandt has a crack
A well-struck effort from 20 yards but straight into the arms of Hradecky. Actually the first save he's made today.
69'
Almost another own goal!
Tapsoba slides to intercept another cross from the right and accidentally turns the ball towards his own goal again. He has Frimpong to thank this time that it didn't cross the line.
61'
Haller's day done
No goal and, to be honest, not many chances, but Haller will feel great to have got 60 minutes under his belt on his first start since cancer. Modeste is on in his place.
60'
Özcan suspended
Bit of a silly booking as Özcan kicks the ball away. It's his fifth of the campaign so he'll miss next weekend's home game against Freiburg.
59'
Know the feeling
That was the second own goal of Tapsoba's Bundesliga career. The first came in a 2-1 loss in Frankfurt in January 2021.

Adli!
Close but no cigar for the hosts as Adli meets a cross from the right but only puts his header at Kobel.

Denied twice!
Diaby now forces a save out of Kobel from a wide position on the left. The goalkeeper can't hold and Adli is lurking, but a combination of yellow shirts get in the way to block from close range.
47'
Free-kick
Bayer quickly on the front foot and Adli is hauled back by Süle. Wirtz leaves the free-kick for the left foot of Diaby, but it's a poor delivery and cleared.

Will we see a response?
It's the first time Leverkusen have trailed at the break under Alonso at home in the Bundesliga. Will we see a response from the hosts as we resume the action?

Quick card
And the goalscorer quickly gets his name in the referee's notebook as he slides in and catches Diaby at the other end. His fourth booking of the season to go with his first goal.

Adeyemi slots home!
Clinical from Dortmund. They win the ball inside the Leverkusen half, Brandt exchanges a one-two with Bellingham on the right. The former's low cross is dummied by Haller around the penalty spot, leaving it for Adeyemi completely free behind, and he slots past Hradecky into the bottom right corner.

First card
Tapsoba catches Adeyemi on his ankle on the touchline and gets the first card of the game.

Excellent recovery
Dortmund win a corner as Brandt sees a cross blocked. It's immediately cleared and Leverkusen look to break. Wirtz is about to pick a pass into space but Adeyemi races back to pinch his pocket and cut out the danger.

Looking for that final ball
BVB are getting forward a bit more now and looking for men in the box. Bellingham attempts to find Adeyemi with a through ball but it's overhit and allows Hradecky to collect.

Diaby!
Wirtz carves open the Dortmund defence with a pass into the path of Diaby. It's on his weaker right to the right of goal as he goes for the far corner. Superb reaction from Kobel to tip it wide.

Süle over
Long free-kick is pumped into the Leverkusen box. It's only headed clear as far as Süle, who hits it on the volley. Well off target though.

Adeyemi battles
And Frimpong is almost caught out as the ball breaks in the box and Adeyemi gets there in front of him. The Dortmund man gets the better of the Dutch defender at first, but Frimpong recovers to get in a block.

A back 3.5 from Leverkusen
It's definitely a back four from Xabi Alonso but Frimpong has licence to push high and wide. When he does, Hincapie tucks in to form a three for cover.

Amiri!
Bayer on the front foot again as Amiri creates a yard of space for a shot on the edge of the box. Just left of the D, he goes for the near corner but drags just wide with Kobel on the stretch.

Palacios has a go
First effort of the game comes from the reigning world champion but Palacios's effort is easily held by Kobel.

Alonso's Leverkusen on the up
Leverkusen have claimed 19 points from nine Bundesliga matches under Alonso, compared to five across the first eight of the campaign. "We're defending better, the spaces are tighter, everybody helps each other. That gives us great security and in turn we are also stronger when we're on the attack," the Spanish coach said of his team's about-turn in fortunes.
Title talk in Dortmund
"Are we in the mix, or are we playing catch-up? We want to avoid the latter," Terzic said in his pre-match press conference, in reference to the title race. "We want to be the ones who start the new year with nine points and are in the thick of things."
