Darul Ta'zim will host Borussia Dortmund at the Sultan Ibrahim Stadium on Monday (November 28) in a friendly.
The hosts enjoyed a stellar campaign last season, picking up their ninth consecutive Malaysian Premier League title after finishing the season unbeaten. Darul picked up a 2-1 comeback win over Selangor FC in their final game of the season, with Bergson and Fernando Forestieri getting on the scoresheet to help overturn a first-half deficit.
Darul have wrapped up their highly impressive season and will now look to test their mettle against European opposition.
Dortmund, meanwhile, have had mixed results this season but hit a rough patch just before the international break. They were beaten 4-2 by Borussia Monchengladbach in their last Bundesliga outing. BvB were gutted to come away with nothing after dominating much of the game.
The visitors have three friendlies scheduled during the ongoing 2022 FIFA World Cup break. BvB picked up a 7-2 win over Lion City Sailors in the first of those games on Thursday.
