The performance of Dortmund in the last three matches, especially has not been good at all. And if they continue performing like this, it is going to be a problem for them to stay at the top of the table. They will have to improve their performance otherwise they might actually not Finish in the top four position at the end of the season, to be honest. They have a difference of 10 points between them and the team which is in the first position of the table. And drag now they are not even in the top four positions. Things are not looking good for them and that’s why it is definitely going to be hard to trust them with any type of good performance.
Dortmund's problems are still the same as the previous season, they are a strong team but they can't be consistent and that has been visible since the start of this season so I wouldn't be surprised if over the course of this season they will experience declines and increases in performance without any clear reason every week. , that's the reality of the Dortmund team.
To compete at the top in the race for the Bundesliga title, Dortmund is still being considered, but I'm sure it won't be hot and long, and in fact, this season, Leverkusen is more of a threat in the title competition with Bayern than Dortmund.
The main reason for Dortmund's erratic and poor performances is that their defense is very weak. If Dortmund's defense is strong, then Dortmund's performance is likely to be very stable and consistent. Dortmund conceded 17 goals in 11 matches. None of the teams in the top four of the points table have conceded that many goals. Dortmund's defense therefore needs to improve quickly if they want to stay in the top four of the table.
Dortmund will play their next match against Gladbach. The performance of this team is very erratic but the team is strong enough. And they always perform well against big teams. So Dortmund has the possibility of losing points in this match as well.
