The sports director of Borussia Dortmund, Sebastian Kehl, is convinced that the team will not repeat the mistake two years ago and will win in the last stage of the Bundesliga, thus ensuring a place in the Champions League.
The team from Signal Iduna Park ranks fifth in the standings, and a victory for a difference of three goals against Holstein Kiel, already relegated, will provide them with a place in the top 4, regardless of the result of the other key match, between Freiburg and Frankfurt. Borussia can qualify in the Champions League and with a victory for a smaller difference of goals, but in this case, Eintracht does not have to lose.
