germany's biggest match of the season takes place later today it's known as dick classic car and if it's been his legal leaders were as a dork running against defending champions byron munich and alina talking fifty w.'s force is here to explain what the fuss is all about so alema dortmund do go into this game as league leaders so what would a victory against the byron giants mean for them this would definitely be a statement victory it would also legitimize the success that they've been having it would legitimize them as title contenders and just like the four nil hammering of. metric madrid it also shows that they can keep up with the big guys just for us let's just take a look at just what an incredible season has had so far. dortmund have looked like a well oiled machine through the first ten but just league matches no losses three

draws and a league high thirty goals still i it's perfect timing to welcome the defending champions by in munich to their own back yard because when lose or draw men will remain table leaders in fact they haven't lost in the league since losing five or took over but the coach thinks there's still room to grow. we've made progress in the last three or four months but we still have a lot to learn tactically. we have a young team and they need time to develop that's normal when you're nineteen or twenty you're not fully mature. enough to additional just. historically byron have won the lion's share of the fixtures against or this season byron's form has been lackluster under new coach nico kovacs resulting in the team dropping in the standings but the byron boss remains as calm as can be i if i says

to. him i know a lot gets made of this feeling pressure but believe me i don't feel any pressure two and a half years ago with frank but i had the relegation play off that was about survival that was real precious. existence and. so therefore we're going to enjoy the game against don't mind. foreign dominated the last three blunders the good meetings between the two sides however the last time dortmund were victorious over by and they were leading the table like they are now. all right so it does promise to be quite a thrilling match and yet it has to be said the dortmund's they have a lot of talent but it is a young team do they have the experience that it takes to really be biron look at him and are young and express and inexperience and inexperienced but they have something that by and don't tap and that is that they are informed right now if you compare. pulis sake kimi to the likes of miller or rebury you know exactly why

gautam and is having a much better season and sometimes all you need is a great leader and i think i have found that in mock or royce he is arguably having one of his best season six goals five assists and let's be honest i mean don't one has come out and said that we're not thinking about the title but with a win against by on they can dream big all right well i have to say marcos is my son's favorite player ok but let's talk about byron coach nico some trouble that he's been having if they do lose it byron loses does this spell the end for sam the end it's a very complicated situation because unlike at dortmund who are too young and too inexperienced by and perhaps it's too experienced and too old and just like and you know and there's a lot of talk as to not with who is to blame last season we had a similar scenario and a color enchilada here and in hindsight we can safely now say it wasn't all his fog and the big question is just like back then there's talk of

a rebellion inside the body and can and the question is can colebatch manage all these egos because we saw what happened to ensure naughty and it will be very interesting to see the direction that top management will take because one way or another summit someone's head house to roll and it will have to wait and see only no talkie from database for its many thanks indeed. all right before we go is there any job say for machines or robots or artificial intelligence well apparently not even the job of news anchor and looks like i may have some stiff competition from china the state run news agency has unveiled new computer generated news anchors they're modeled on real anchors and apparently they can read the news just as naturally as a real person but to each as for yourself hello everyone in many english artificial intelligence this is my very first day and saying one has agency my voice and appearance are modeled on
