14-11 shots and 58% possession in Borussia Dortmund’s favour. In what was an exciting clash with six goals, BVB had to settle for a 3-3 draw away to Eintracht Frankfurt. The match facts.

Unbeaten: BVB are unbeaten after 09 rounds of matches for only the third time in the club’s history (previously 2002/03 and 2018/19) and have five points more on the board (21) than at the same stage of last season.

High-scoring: Both teams have been rather solid defensively throughout the season so far, but today both Frankfurt and Dortmund conceded more than two goals in a competitive match for the first time this season.

Important substitutes: Youssoufa Moukoko and Julian Brandt scored, while fellow sub Karim Adeyemi set up Brandt’s goal. Last season, BVB were the team with the most goals scored by substitutes.

Following in historic footsteps: Marcel Sabitzer scored his first goal of the season, as did half-time substitute Youssoufa Moukoko. The youngster has scored eight of his 13 Bundesliga goals after coming off the bench. Historically, only Paco Alcacer has more substitute goals in a BVB shirt than Moukoko, who is still only 18.

Run continued: Julian Brandt has been involved in at least one goal in each of his last eight Bundesliga games (four goals and four assists) and has the most scorer points and goals for BVB this season.

Landmark figure: Mats Hummels made his 350th Bundesliga appearance in a BVB shirt and overtook Roman Weidenfeller in the process. He now occupies second place outright in the all-time ranking behind Michael Zorc (463 games).

Provider: Niclas Füllkrug has also delivered in a BVB shirt and has now been involved in four goals in seven Bundesliga matches for Borussia (two goals, two assists).

Back from 2-0 down: BVB also went 2-0 at the same stadium at the start of 2022 and scored three goals that day too, but did not concede any more.

From the spot: 36 of the previous 37 penalties against BVB have gone in, with only Dodi Lukebakio missing once. The last Bundesliga penalty that was saved dates back to October 2013 (Roman Weidenfeller against Kevin-Prince Boateng of Schalke).

Many spot-kicks: BVB gave away only one penalty in the entirety of the 2022/23 campaign but it’s already four this season (previously against Heidenheim, Hoffenheim and Union Berlin).
