Borussia Dortmund's U23s will welcome SSV Ulm, who have already secured promotion, to the Rote Erde on Saturday. Kick-off is at 14:00 CEST. BVB coach Jan Zimmermann and his players will be aiming to add to their points tally of 53, which is already a club record for a 3. Liga campaign.

BVB personnel: BVB have had little in the way of injury problems recently, so the coach will be able to call on an almost full complement of players again on Saturday. The only exceptions are goalkeeper Tiago Estevao and defender Felix Irorere. It remains to be seen whether Prince Aning and Lion Semic will return to the squad.

Stats and facts on the visitors: SSV Ulm, who have already been promoted to Bundesliga 2, are having an outstanding season and have been the second-best team in the league in the second half of the season, with third-placed Preussen Münster the only team to pick up more points. In goalkeeper Christian Ortag and left winger Nicolas Jann, the Sparrows also have two players who have been involved in every 3. Liga match the club has played this season. The most prolific scorer is Leo Scienza, who has scored nine times. Under coach Thomas Wörle, who has been in charge since 2021, Ulm returned to the third tier after 22 years and have now achieved direct promotion to the Bundesliga 2. The visitors have the best defence in the league, with only 35 goals conceded, but have also scored 59 . Only SC Preussen Münster have scored more . The Black & Whites have lost only just five games away from home this season, picking up a total of 33 points on the road.

Head-to-head record: The two teams have only met once before: the reverse fixture earlier in the season ended in a 1-1 draw. Falko Michel scored a well-deserved equaliser for BVB.

Outlook: It's not just the visitors who are scoring lots of goals this season. The same also applies to BVB: no other Black & Yellows team have ever scored as many as 56 goals in the 3. Liga. In addition, the team led by captain Franz Pfanne wants to extend the current record of 53 points. BVB have already achieved their goals for the season and will do everything in their power to make the last home game of the season a success. 

As always, tickets for the match are available via the ticket shop or on matchday from 12:30 CEST at the Rote Erde stadium. Due to the renovation work for EURO 2024 in a few weeks, some spectator areas will be closed, but this will only affect standing areas in the corners.
