+++ UPDATE +++
Update from March 6, 4:33 p.m .:
Marco Fritz is at the pipe today.
The banker from Korb is leading his ninth Bundesliga game of the season.
He never came into contact with BVB, he whistled Bayern in a 2-1 home win over VfL Wolfsburg on matchday 12.
At that time Robert Lewandowski was there twice.
The referee could be a good omen for the hosts.
With Jadon Sancho, Gio Reyna and Raphael Guerreiro, three top performers are canceled on the Dortmund side.
Update from March 6, 3:08 p.m.:
While at FC Bayern, alongside David Alaba and Javi Martinez, Jerome Boateng should also leave the club, at BVB they want to keep their stars.
First and foremost, of course, Jadon Sancho, who is unfortunately not available today due to an injury, and Erling Haaland.
BVB boss Watzke does not expect both youngsters to be able to leave the club in the summer.
"Overall, I do not think that crazy things will happen," said the 61-year-old in an interview with
Sky
.
Watzke also does not expect a mega offer.
"I know the situation in the European leagues very well, and the clouds are getting darker instead of lighter," said the BVB boss.
Nevertheless, there are clubs that are still financially potent despite the Corona crisis, which is why offers could flutter in at BVB.
If “extraordinary things happen”, this will be discussed with the players, explains Watzke: “Of course we also want the players to be there with conviction.
I don't think it's going to be a huge summer of transfers ”.
FC Bayern - BVB in the live ticker: Three top performers drop out - BVB boss Watzke sees "clouds getting darker"
Update from March 6th, 11:18 am:
Top game day!
The duel FC Bayern has often caused a spectacle.
For example on May 25, 2013, when the two teams faced each other in the historic German Champions League final.
Or on March 31, 2018, when Munich knocked BVB off the field with a historic 6-0.
But the black and yellow ones also had their shining moments.
For example on November 10, 2018, when Paco Alcacer shot Dortmund to a 3-2 victory.
Bayern coach Hansi Flick is still unbeaten against BVB, tonight he wants to take his fifth win in the fifth classic.
FC Bayern - BVB in the live ticker: Dortmund's staff worries are great
Update from March 6th, 9:12 am:
For Borussia Dortmund, the prestige duel against FC Bayern Munich seems to be under a bad star.
The BVB personnel worries, which were still speculated about on Friday, were confirmed on Saturday and are even worse.
As suspected, neither Jadon Sancho nor Raphael Guerreiro traveled to Munich with them.
Two extremely bitter failures for Dortmund.
After a mixed start to the season, winger Sancho had improved extremely in the last few weeks and was involved in five goals in the last three games alone.
Left-back Guerreiro is also one of the top performers in coach Edin Terzic's team and is also a hard-to-compensate failure. National player Nico Schulz is likely to play for the Portuguese.
It is currently uncertain who will take over from Jadon Sancho's position.
Youngster Giovanni Reyna would have been the first option, but the US-American could not make the trip to Munich to make matters worse.
Julian Brandt and Thorgan Hazard are seen as further alternatives.

Original message from March 5th:
Munich - It's not a duel for the title, but Borussia Dortmund can steal the championship lead from FC Bayern with a win.
If RB Leipzig * also wins against SC Freiburg *, Bayern are only second.
After a week without a game in the cup, the triple winners are in top shape - and that's not the only reason why there are a few things that speak for Hansi Flick's team *.
The first leg just went to Bayern, but Joshua Kimmich * 's injury weighed heavily.
He's back on Saturday and he's already on fire: “Games against Dortmund are always special.
We are a few points ahead, but Dortmund has the quality to play along.
Therefore, the mentality may make the difference in the end, ”said the midfield boss of the Munich team.
