Liverpool return from the international break on a three-match losing streak and now trail Arsenal by one point in the title race.
This summer, they underwent a squad overhaul, bringing in Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, and Alexander Isak.
Perhaps the biggest signing was getting Mohamed Salah to sign a new contract with the club.
The Egyptian is coming off an incredible season where he scored 34 goals and dished out 23 assists.
This season, though, it’s been tough sledging because he’s only scored three goals and has three assists in nine appearances across all competitions.
In fact, when you dive deeper into his numbers, you’ll see that everything is down across the board.
That begs the question: What has changed this season for Salah?
In this scout report, we’ll answer that question in terms of his role under Arne Slot tactics, look at some of the numbers between seasons, and consider what potential tactical changes for Liverpool could get the 33-year-old back to his form from last season.
The Bundesliga title race has been dominated by two clubs over the past 15 years.
Bayern Munich have been the serial winners of the league, with only Bayer Leverkusen being able to beat them out over the course of a season in recent years (2023/2024).
In their first season under manager Vincent Kompany, FC Bayern comfortably won the league once again.
Their start to the second year has been amazing as well.
They have won all six of their league games so far, scoring 25 goals while only conceding three.
Conversely, Borussia Dortmund are coming off a bad season for their standards.
After a horrible first half of the season, the club decided to part ways with former player Nuri Şahin as their manager and hired Niko Kovač as their new coach.
Under the Croatian coach, BVB stabilised quickly and got back to the UEFA Champions League places by the end of the 2024/2025 season.
They are now in second place in the Bundesliga, four points behind FC Bayern.
Looking at the history of „Der Klassiker“ in Munich over the last couple of years, Dortmund have had a rough time, losing eight in a row in Bavaria with a combined score of 35-7 in favour of FC Bayern.
But Dortmund managed a win and a draw in the last two games in Munich, so the trend currently seems to be their friend.
In this tactical analysis and tactical preview, we will examine what makes FC Bayern so strong, where they can still be hurt, and what Borussia Dortmund need to do to avoid falling back too far in the title race this season.
