One of the biggest rivalries in soccer takes center stage on Saturday when Bundesliga foes Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund renew their long-standing feud known simply as Der Klassiker ("The Classic" in German).
Bayern, led by forward Harry Kane, will host Serhou Guirassy and Dortmund live on ESPN, ESPN+, Disney+ and ESPN Deportes.
The two clubs played to a 1-1 draw in their previous meeting in November 2024. Kane, who leads Bundesliga with 23 goals this season, left in the 33rd minute with a right hamstring strain.
Though Kane will be on the field Saturday, the first-place Bavarians could be without midfielder Jamal Musiala, who missed the first leg of Bayern's Champions League quarterfinal against Inter Milan on Tuesday with a hamstring injury. Bayern lost 2-1.
Historically, the Bavarians have handed Dortmund more losses than any other club. Bayern lead the all-time series 69-32-35.
