BERLIN Borussia Dortmund could already be Bundesliga champion by the time they host Borussia Moenchengladbach on Saturday.Dortmund play the late match and if Bayern Munich fail to win earlier at Werder Bremen, Dortmund will be assured of their second consecutive championship before they kick off at home. Juergen Klopp’s team is eight points ahead of Bayern with three matches to play.Bayern are likely to be looking more to next week’s return leg of the Champions League semifinals against Real Madrid than worry about a match in the Bundesliga, where their title hopes are theoretical.Dortmund defender Neven Subotic says his teammates are not doing the mathematics."We are only concentrating on winning. We want to grab the title on our own power. We want to offer the fans a spectacle. Our hunger for success hasn’t gone away suddenly,” Subotic said.Dortmund are riding a record 25-match unbeaten run as they close in on the title. Last season, they also sealed the title on the 32nd matchday, then as the youngest side in the Bundesliga.Moenchengladbach are one point behind Schalke and are still hoping to clinch a direct spot in next season’s Champions League, a remarkable feat for a team that barely escaped relegation last season.
