Borussia Dortmund has received the finalized schedule for the concluding phase of the season, with the DFL confirming the dates for the last few Bundesliga matchdays – featuring some thrilling matchups for BVB.
The German Football League (DFL) has outlined the last matchdays for the 2025/26 Bundesliga season with precise timings, allowing teams to organize accordingly as the season draws to a close. Borussia Dortmund still has four fixtures remaining, split between two home games and two away, set across Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. As customary, the season finale will occur with all matches taking place simultaneously.
The pivotal period begins with a home encounter against SC Freiburg on Sunday, April 26, at 5:30 p.m. at SIGNAL IDUNA PARK. The team from Breisgau is comfortably positioned in the middle of the table and is viewed as a challenging rival. Following this, BVB will have another Sunday match: on May 3 (5:30 p.m.), they will head to Mönchengladbach for the Borussia derby. The hosts, struggling near the bottom of the standings and fighting against relegation, are expected to make this an intense competition.
The season’s last home game is set for Friday, May 8, at 8:30 p.m., where Eintracht Frankfurt will be the opponent. Frankfurt is also vying for European qualification, making this matchup particularly significant. The previous encounter between these teams was quite dramatic, resulting in a 3-3 tie.
BVB vs. Werder Bremen: Season Closer on Matchday 34
To conclude the season, Borussia Dortmund will go up against Werder Bremen. This match is scheduled for Saturday, May 16, at 3:30 p.m., coinciding with the rest of the fixtures on Matchday 34. Bremen remains in contention in the relegation battle and is anticipated to approach the game with considerable determination.
In terms of their performance, BVB currently sits in second place with a solid point total. Although the gap to toppers Bayern Munich is not unbridgeable, focusing on securing the second position—thus ensuring early qualification for the Champions League—seems like the more attainable target.
With the schedule now set, Dortmund faces a diverse array of matches in the run-in—two on Sundays, one on Friday evening under the lights, and the traditional season finale on Saturday afternoon.
