Manuel Akanji vs. Robert Lewandowski
Manuel Akanji has become the undisputed leader of the Dortmund back row since Lukasz Piszczek came out injured. It is unclear whether Piszczek will be able to take part in the match against Bayern, but no matter, Akanji will have the most difficult task, Lewandowski.
This battle will certainly have a huge impact on the outcome of the match, as Lewandowksi account for the majority of Bayern goals. Lewandowski has 199 goals in the Bundesliga and would like to reach his 200th scoring goal against his former club.
If Akanji manages to stop Lewandowski and set it aside, Dortmund will have a good chance of getting a positive result. It's far from being an easy task, Akanji will not only have to be at his best, but also do his best to make sure the Dortmund defense line is organized.
