BVB clearly dominated in their own back yard, registering 54% possession, winning an excellent 57% of the challenges and converting clinically in front of the opposition goal. Four of BVB’s 14 shots went in, while all nine of Eintracht’s attempts failed. The match facts.

Goals glut: Borussia Dortmund have now scored 41 Bundesliga goals since the winter break (in 14 matches); no other team has found the net more than 30 times in that time.

Historic home run: Borussia Dortmund have racked up nine consecutive home victories within a Bundesliga season for the first time.

League leaders: The last time Borussia topped the table so late in a Bundesliga season was in 2011/12; BVB ultimately finished that campaign under coach Jürgen Klopp as German champions.

Double provider: Karim Adeyemi assisted two goals in a Bundesliga game for the first time (both for Donyell Malen).

Top assister: Raphael Guerreiro notched his 12th assist of the season – 10 of which have come since the winter break. Both values are league highs!

First brace: Donyell Malen bagged his first brace in the Bundesliga (in his 48th game).

Great scoring run: Donyell Malen has now scored in five successive Bundesliga matchdays; Jadon Sancho was the last BVB player to go on such a run at the end of 2019. Malen has scored each of his seven goals since Matchday 21.
