Borussia Dortmund will be looking to maintain their solid start to the Ruckrunde when they host Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday afternoon.
The two sides met on Tuesday in the DFB-Pokal, when a late Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang header was enough to send Dortmund into the semi-finals of the competition.
Dortmund were on a run of four games without victory in the Bundesliga before the winter break, but they have come back in good form to take maximum points in their last two matches.
Frankfurt have struggled with inconsistency for much of the season and the second half shows no sign of this ending. A heavy 5-0 defeat by Bayern Munich was followed in their last league game by a strong home win against Eintracht Braunschweig.
With Jakub Blaszczykowski out for the rest of the season, Kevin Grosskreutz started on the right in the cup game, and this could continue with Marco Reus likely to be another week away from a return.
Stefano Celozzi is the only injury concern for the visitors and they could be unchanged from the side that only narrowly lost out in the week.
