The young Norwegian has been one of the best signings in recent times for Borussia Dortmund.

Erling Haaland has been nothing short of sensational at Borussia Dortmund since his arrival from RB Salzburg in the winter transfer window earlier this year, enthralling the Signal Iduna Park faithful with his belligerent goal-scoring exploits.

He was the catalyst in helping his side finish second in the Bundesliga once again last season.

Haaland has since added another ten goals from as many games to his kitty this season, a tally that includes one against Bayern Munich in the Supercup last month.


Striker: Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich)

Robert Lewandowski has scored 18 goals against Borussia Dortmund in 22 games, including two hat-tricks.

Robert Lewandowski simply cannot stop scoring. One of the key players in Bayern Munich's treble-winning campaign last season, with 55 goals, Lewandowski has continued much in the same vein this season, having already netted ten goals in just five top-flight games, a tally that includes two hat-tricks.

No player in the world can hold a candle to Robert Lewandowski right now, considering the latter's red-hot form.

Ahead of the first Bundesliga Der Klassiker of the season, the Polish assassin would relish the prospect of going up against his former side, against whom he's scored at a phenomenal rate - 18 goals in 22 games - since leaving BVB in 2014.
