- The victory moves Dortmund above Bayer Leverkusen into third place after both sides impressed in midweek Champions League fixtures.
- RB Leipzig were held 0–0 at Borussia Mönchengladbach, with VAR ruling out a Franck Honorat goal for offside and overturning a late penalty for Shuto Machino.
- Leipzig’s David Raum highlighted the clean sheet as a positive but admitted the visitors lacked cutting edge in attack.
- Dortmund and Leverkusen meet again on Tuesday at Signal Iduna Park in the DFB-Pokal for a place in the quarter-finals, as second-tier action saw Paderborn’s eight-game winning run halted last weekend.
