High-flying Augsburg insist hosts Borussia Dortmund are favourites for Wednesday's Bundesliga clash despite their opponents occupying last spot in the Bundesliga table and battling relegation. Jurgen Klopp's Dortmund dropped back to the foot of the table on Saturday despite picking up a point in their goalless draw at fellow Champions League side Bayer Leverkusen.
Fifth-placed Augsburg are enjoying one of the best seasons in the club's history and romped to a 3-1 win over Hoffenheim on Sunday while Dortmund are enduring their worst season for 30 years. Borussia are waiting on the fitness of defender Lukasz Piszczek and midfielder Ilkay Gundogan while new signing Kevin Kampl is set to make his home debut at Borussia's Westfalenstadion.
