Dortmund vs Wolfsburg – Goals, Records, and High Stakes
This Sunday evening, fans can look forward to an exciting Bundesliga clash at Signal Iduna Park, as Borussia Dortmund takes on VfL Wolfsburg. The match kicks off at 19:30, a slightly unusual time, but it promises to be worth the wait. Every time these two sides meet, goals are almost guaranteed. On average, more than three goals have been scored in their recent encounters, which sets the stage for another action-packed battle.
The storyline is already intriguing because both Dortmund and Wolfsburg remain unbeaten this season. Out of the five clubs in the Bundesliga that still hold this record, two will now meet head-to-head. Dortmund, last year’s fourth-place finisher, has an impressive streak at home against Wolfsburg. The last seven home games between the two sides were all won by Dortmund, and only one goal was conceded in that span. That dominance in front of their own fans will surely give them confidence going into the match.
Looking at the numbers, Dortmund was the second-best home team last season, with 11 wins, three draws, and only three losses. The current run at Signal Iduna Park is even stronger: five consecutive home victories, and in each of those games, at least three goals were scored by the Black and Yellows. Wolfsburg, on the other hand, traveled well last season too, winning eight of their 17 away games. This year, they already started their campaign with an away win, beating Heidenheim 3:1.

Historically, the matchup tilts heavily in Dortmund’s favor. Since the 2014/15 season, only one league match against Wolfsburg has been lost by BVB. Seventeen wins and two draws underline their dominance. For Wolfsburg, Dortmund is one of the toughest opponents in Bundesliga history, second only to Bayern Munich in terms of defeats and goals conceded.
From a form perspective, Dortmund comes into this fixture riding an 11-game unbeaten run in the Bundesliga. Nine of those matches ended in wins, and in all of them at least two goals were scored. Under coach Niko Kovac, Dortmund has averaged more than two points per game, the best record of any BVB manager. Players like Serhou Guirassy have been particularly clinical, making the most out of very few shots on goal.
Wolfsburg, meanwhile, sits on five points after three matches but will feel they let points slip away. Late goals have been their Achilles heel this season, with three of their five conceded goals arriving in stoppage time. Still, their strength in set pieces remains intact, a weapon that could trouble Dortmund if focus drops.
Memories of past meetings also add flavor. Fans recall the emphatic 6:0 win in 2023 and a 6:1 victory the year before, when stars like Karim Adeyemi, Jude Bellingham, and Julian Brandt delivered unforgettable performances.
With an unbeaten streak on the line for both sides, history favoring Dortmund, and Wolfsburg’s resilience on the road, Sunday’s clash has all the ingredients of a Bundesliga spectacle. The atmosphere will be electric, and fans can expect nothing less than goals, drama, and another chapter in this exciting rivalry.
